Might be cheaper to try Hornady RB's before you have to foot the cost for a mold- IrishFritz

Gee, I really hope you'll try your rifle with a patched round ball as you may find it will shoot much better. I have found that a .575" round ball and a .015" spit patch with a load of 70grs of 3Fg...

There is a relationship between the height of the full cock notch and the half cock notch. This has little to do with depth of the full cock notch. When the trigger is pulled to the rear, the the top...

You didn't say how many grooves your Zouave barrel has. Early production has 7 grooves and are twisted for round balls and they are superb shooters with patched round balls using a .570RB with an...

Good Job! One method I have used over the years is to use thermal expansion and contraction to break parts loose. For something like a nipple I would use a butane micro torch and heat each nipple...

I remember something about human eye sight is only able to focus on a single focal point at one time, however, the muscles that that stretch the eye lens are able to very rapidly refocus on multiple...

Don't forget to fill holes and voids with modeling clay where you don't want the glass to go. I like to thin paste wax with paint thinner and paint it on to be sure you get into every tiny area.

Thanks Walks, Well, I guess I'm going to find out as I've got a short rifle in 44 mag inbound about Wednesday. I will cerrosafe cast the bore and my hope is that it will be in the .429-.430 range as...

Thanks for the info guys. Indeed, I'm looking for the maximum diameter of the bores as measured in a barrel with even numbered lands and grooves from the bottom of the groove to the top of the ...

A quick search of the archives didn't turn up the average bore diameters of the Miroku 92 357 and 44 mags. I'd like to pair up a handgun and a light rifle/carbine and would like to be able to...

I guess I'll just have to get off my butt and buy a hundred Shutzen and a hundred current production RWS and do some range time with my rifles: there's just never any free lunch is there?

I'm down to my last 2500 RWS musket caps and that makes me nervous. So, has anyone tried the new Shutzen caps to see how they compare to RWS?

Back in the day, the old-timers used to speculate that a straight flame path into the weight of the charge produced a more uniform ignition and thereby contributed to accuracy. If that is true, then...
