I hadn't shot all of August, and when I took it out last weekend for goose season, my plug was loose. It was loose enough it could fall out under gravity. I've had this horn for 2-3 years, and the plug was always tight, I'm not sure what happened. Apparently the dry summer caused it to shrink. I discovered this as I was trying to get out the door, so I did the quickest fix I could think of with what was in the garage. I rubbed it in beeswax. Sure enough, it seems to have done more than a satisfactory job in making it fit snug, or at least glued it in. Does anyone else have any tricks to making a plug fit tight again?

You must have little kids. That's a good one. I don't know how you will ever get a snickers bar out of there.

Maybe stick some shot in there, shake it up, and see if it will break the candy up enough to pour it out.

Depends on what I'm shooting. Right now it's Schuetzen 3F for the 40, but once squirrel season is over and after I bust a javelina here soon, it'll go back to Olde Eynsford 2F. The Swiss 1.5 is for those new cartridges everyone keeps talking about.

Why not shoot your 40 for javelina?

Yes, the OP originally started a post with this title in the percussion rifle section.......... Perhaps a mod could combine them

ffg for long barreled and fffg for short barreled

That's what I will likely use, maybe even for a pig too this weekend. I usually deer hunt with a 54 and my trade gun prefers 2F, that's what I meant. Will be swapping out.

to address the original question, i would have to say , which one?
not really as i only make fffg and it's all my home brew.
