Oh and i wear a mask when doing this...just like when i make black powder...the airfloat powders get into your sinuses and causes the dark boogers. I noticed when i didnt wear a mask i could still...

Oftig is very much correct about the antimony granulation. I have successfully made the mix many times...but the times it failed were due to the antimony granulation. The airfloat stuff wont work, i...

Misterstyx what type of charcoal did you use? That plays a huge part on how clean your powder burns

I did 3 designs for .36 cal. Even one that is an REAL type design with a wider meplat. for some reason i cant load pics but heres a link explaining my designs and pics.....

The roof flashing is way to stiff...doesnt make good caps on the cap maker. The 36 gauge/.005 aluminum works good but is a little too weak as the caps back end gets destroyed (practically...

Blackmz loves compression and i use it in my .36 cals...i can use 30 grains and still use a ball...it compresses a whole lot. The grains are large but just tap your flask to get the spout nicely...

Cant really tell from the picture...but is the writing engraved into the cylinder? I hope not..

..i was the person on the high road who used duco cement. I did a write up on how to make the caps using roll caps. They are still available if you know where to look. The prime all kit is ok but too...

I love accurate molds...have a few bullet designs there myself and Tom is a great guy to work with...gets the molds out fast. Usually dont end up waiting more than a week for each mold i had them...

Mr.doubleduck, you say its twice as fast as swiss?! As in when you shoot it or just burning in a line? Id sure like to see what chrono readings you get comparing swiss and your honemade powder from...

Nobade i have seen this bullet be used by idaho ron paper patched i believe...i could be mistaken. Did you paper patch or use a wad etc? Unsized do you know what it comes out too? Think it would be...

I own piettas and all my pietta nipples take remington 10s..although all i can get and prefer are remington 11s...so i have upgraded my nipples to slix shots and uncle mikes. They both fit remington...

Mr.BC17A ....that is one awesome idea. One of the best i have seen on resizing caps which is way better than pinching caps....your method causes the cap to make a tight seal..which a pinched cap does...

Would you happen to have a link to frontierganfers testing? Thanks!

I have never used APP and all testing i have seen is that it is very underpowered compared to other subs and black powders....yet i have heard its the same product as the now discontinued BlackMZ,...

Idid a write up on making paper cartridges on page two of this forum listing.. Check it out if interested. Makes the best fit and performance paper cartridges after experimenting a whole lot with...

Well great... Now my holloware fork and spoon collecting will become more difficult now that you pesky black powder folks will start a demand for them.

Yeah ive widened the caps in the past...actually once shot brass cups that stay whole widen out perfectly to be used on aftermarket nipples...i just prefer to make use of my stock nipples..and since...

I second all the negatives said above about pyrodex...if someone gifted me a bottle i would definately know they are no friend of mine :-P

I use the cap maker from ".22 reloader", and the caps they make dont fit aftermarket nipples like slixshot....but they fit stock pietta and the smaller RMC stainless nipples that only fit CCI #10s....

Mr. LAGS im glad the copper worked out for you. They also have a brass in that size that works great too but its stiffer. But i love the copper...its my go to material for caps.

I had someone send me some and it was great too...although i tried paulownia once and it was fantastic. So im wanting to get some and use it and red alder as my primary charcoals. I want to get the...

Anyone able to get paulownia? I wanna get some or charcoal made from it. Id be willing to trade willow and red alder for it.

Mr.idz...im no way capable of making a cap maker nor own a lathe. By any chance would i be able to buy a musket cap maker from you?

Heres the brass sheet. Stuff is great too
