not sure if this is the best place to post this question but here goes......
Im "Thinking" about building a muzzle loader from scratch. when I say scratch, I mean buying a piece of seamless steel tube, rifling it, filing it to a hexagon etc. im thinking about making it a wheel lock style ignition and .54 cal. I know I can buy a ready made barrel, lock, stock and all furnishings but i have WWAAAAYYYY too much time on my hands.
I noticed an add in one of my magazines selling a book called "The craft of Black Powder fire arms by Tom Rogers." dont know if this might have some guidance and direction for me as the add is vague so thought id ask or have some of you seasoned veterans steer or stear me straight!
Thanx
Dan
