That doesn't seem like too bad of a deal compared to the Pedersoli Cub kit I just purchased.
If I were looking for a small bore, I'd be all over it. I love the .36 cal. Let us know if you snap it up. If you've never small game hunted with bp, you haven't lived.
How meaningful can you be, there is only so much to say before you are talking too much.

You could offer the seller a bit less, but IMHO it's already a good buy.

Now I lay me down to sleep
A gun beside me is what I keep
If I awake, and you're inside
The coroner's van is your next ride
I am planning paying asking price. I've been wanting a small caliber muzzleloader.Originally Posted by pietro

Good luck on getting the .36 along with the RB's and the mold. Good caliber for squirrel hunting. I have T/C Seneca in .36 caliber that came with a T/C maxi-ball mold.
Thank you. Seller offered to deliver next week let me look and decide. He lives in Tooele county I'm in south part of Utah county. Pretty sure I've decided to buy it.

It's always good to get a better price, but like has been said, $500 aint too bad. I'd do it. .36 has been my favorite bp cal. I always had good luck with 20gr fff, though most seem to load hotter. 5 rounds touching with that load at 25 yards, as far as I can head shoot a squirrel anyway.

I'm not going to haggle over price. Thanks for the load you using. Can't wait to learn what it likes. I'm hoping hunt cottontail rabbits with it.

I never used it for cottontail, but now you have my juices flowing. One thing for sure, everything tastes better seasoned with black powder. I am sure you will enjoy. I used a tight heavy denim patch with a .350 home cast ball, lubed with mink oil. You are gonna have fun, for sure.

I'd call it a good deal from the get-go. I love the .36 and have one that's my go-to small game rifle. you'll love it!
Young guys should hang out with old guys; old guys know stuff.
My Shenandoah had a ring in the barrel that the scuz seller somehow neglected to mention.
So it got rebored to a .46 to shoot revolver ball.
.36 or .46, I think you'll fall in love with it.
Think I'll refinish mine soon when the nights are long and frozen winds are howling.
Picked it up tonight. For some reason can't upload my pics. Came with roundball and roundball mold. Any one know the thread pitch for the ramrod? Need to buy a cleaning jag
