Try 25-30 gr PRB loads on unopened canned softdrinks. The results are pretty dramatic. Makes for a pretty fun can opener.

0.490 RB, 0.015 patch, 35 gr. Goex FFg, WIN T7 primer. Twist = 1:24. Barrel length 22". Shoots paper better than I can 25 yd offhand targets.

My pet load for the .36 Seneca is 35 grains of FFFg, a .350 round ball in a wonder lubed 0.18 pillow ticking patch. This is a very accurate load. Good for hitting squirrel in the head and punching...

My favorite squirrel load is ¾ oz #5 shot over an equal volume of Goex 2f. I use one felt wad between powder and shot and one over the shot.

For RB load I use a .535 ball with a denim patch. The...

$2 bucks per + S&H. Got plenty ready to ship. They last like forever. might even put together a special deal for an order of 25.

still for sale if this is what you are refering to...

That does sound pretty easy but how do you "drive off a blade from the main core" when the large chunk of flint looks like the spherical nodules in the image I posted?

Mike won't be at his computer for a few days. You will find him waiting at his mailbox. I sent him a box of rocks too.

Should have mentioned that the boards in the table top are 2" wide to give an idea how large those chunks are. All this talk is getting my interest up in going back to see if I can get some more...

Probably pretty close to the same material. This is all I have left from the last trip to that area. Must be more than 15 years ago. These pieces are all too large for gunflints and I do not have the...

Years ago I had a group of friends that liked to trout fish on Sulfur Spring Creek in Simpson County, KY. One of our favorite places to fish was a large pool just upstream from a low water ford. At...

And if it were me, I would buy it in a heartbeat!

Buy at local gun shop, only thing they ask for is my hard earned cash. Could buy mail order but would rather support local shop. If I go in and buy a pound or two every couple of months maybe they...

This real life situation has influenced my opinion on what to load my shotgun with. Several years ago my brother-in-law was shot in an attempted armed robbery as he left a bar at closing time. He and...

I don’t have one but from everything that I know about them, they are too much fun to not have. Was in a friends shop the other day and he gave me a mold. Looks to be for buckshot, will measure and...

T/C Catalog No. 17 (1990) list that sight as part number 9070 to be used with front sight part number 9060.

1873 Springfield Trapdoor made in 1878. Took a doe last season.

This kind of parallels a current project that I am working on. The gun is a T/C 209x12 shotgun. The choke tube is cylinder. My best loading to date is using the Lyman 525 sabot slug cast from pure...

For my New Englander and for the Encore 209x12 I have replaced the choke tubes with the standard WinChoke tubes. These are the ones that extend past the muzzle and use the spanner style wrench. I...

Ever try a rifled choke tube?

I’ve had good luck with the 250 gr REAL in a T/C 1:48. Unlubed with an oiled felt wad between the bullet and 80 gr Goex 3f. Very accurate, looking for a volunteer to test terminal ballistics as soon...

Mail order your black if you can't find locally:

For shotgun and rifle wads that I punch from felt, I use a 1:5 Ballistol to water mix and soak the wads overnight. I then lay them out on a screen to dry. I have not done this with revolver wads but...

I don’t think that shots beyond 35 yards are out of the question but you loose pellet energy at longer ranges. #5 shot is good but #4’s would be better if you can get the pattern density. There are...

Send me a PM, I can set you up.
