Hey Mike, Nice looking rifle. Talking about the 11 mm rings. I found the best source of rings, bases and most everything else in the scope and scope accessories line are in the air gun line. I found...

What caliber and model did you buy Ohio? I bought a At-one just before Christmas and the weather has been so bad up here in Michigan I haven't had a lot of shooting with it. I'm kind confused on the...

You guys have restarted my fire with your 45Colt rantings. My Ruger has been out in my barn safe for 5 or 6 years and forgotten. I'm going out there now and loading some bullets. Gonna look at my...

Thanks all for your advise. A lot of good information and advise here for me to ponder. I just wish I'd looked at it better in the store. With this virus stuff going on, it just took so long to get...

Hello, I bought a new CZ rifle that had a small ding on the side of the forearm. It isn't much but I didn't see it until we were home and it bugs the crap out of me. My gun buddy came over and looked...

How bout it? Did the weather ever clear up? We're still waiting on pins and needles for that post.

I'd say maybe Savage got their stock from Boyd's too. Yes it is a good looking stock as is the Boyd's stock on the CZ At-one that I bought yesterday. We have some nice 22's now days.

I keep seeing this "Rig" grease mentioned and don't know what it is. Where would I find it? I want to give it a try.
Thanks

What happens if you use the salted version? My wife bought the Crisco and it sat around for probably a year before I mixed the lube but now I question whether or not it was the unsalted version. Does...

To check alignment I just look at the nipple and the hammer from different angles ( views). Looking to see if mating surfaces are square to each other. If you put on a longer nipple it's quite...
Forum: Muzzleloading.
The height of the nipples matter a lot. Alignment of the hammer and nipple are especially important for accuracy. Thats one of the first things I check on a rifle that I'm looking at. I shoot a lot...

I'm glad to hear you finally found your rifle. And also glad to hear that you bought you a Martini. Sounds great, I bought a Martini international Mk ll this last week myself. Been looking for one of...

No interest in .22 rimfire ??? You're really missing out. It's a lot of fun and a lot cheaper. Well not a lot cheaper, you won't have any luck with "thunderbolts". You'll have to fine out what your...

I'm really liking my 32-40 for Scheutzen shooting. I wish I had started this type shooting many years earlier. It's really satisfying if you can understand that.

I bought a Lee and used it for a couple of years. It was a good cheap tester but hard to see with old eyes. I finally graduated to a cabin tree and really love it. I find myself going back to the Lee...

I started casting about 8 years ago after my father-in-law passed away. He supplied me with everything I needed because he did custom casting and reloading. So I ended up with a lot of moulds and...
When casting I use the single wood handle as the grasping part of the mould and the metal rod is only used as a break open bar. I sharply jerk the metal bar and the mould breaks free. Once my mould...

Whats with this Voodoo lube? I'm looking for a good lube in a muzzle loader application.
Thanks,

The way I would look at this question is: If I were making pistol bullets, no problem. If I was making cast bullets for my scheutzen rifle I'd go buy certified metal from Rotometals in 20/1.

I bought one of those Kimber 82 G's and could never get that thing to shoot. Tried all kinds of ammo, even tried trashy stuff. You never know some might have a taste for trash. I worked with that...

I use mine for competition twice a month all summer long and remove the nipple and never- seize it every forth or fifth shoot. At the end of the shooting season I take it all down and soak and clean...

Hey RogerDat, You're not far north of all that lead in Flint. Is there any way a guy could locate some of that?

I've used a lot of different commercial fluxes but the one I like best is plain old deer tallow. That's just the fat cut off the venison during processing. Save some in a zip lock bag every hunting...
