He is that for sure Dave.
You don't want your young kids on line close enough that they can hear him.

I used a 500 gr ring tailed for hunting in my slant breech here in the north woods and it got the job done if I didn't stretch it.

My .45-70 might reach 1200 fps but mostly it runs 1180 and it will do just as good at the 1000 yard as the .45-100, 110, or the super horsepower .45-3-1/4. It's not the speed it's the shooter that...

If you used wet patched at Lodi I think I would try the dry patched. It looked like you had some problems. Might be worth a try.
Forum: Black Powder Paper Patching
Don do you use the wet or dry method ?

Some of you guys sure make a mountain out of a ant hill cleaning powder rifles.
No vinegar or anything that is acidy/ hot water/ especially Hydrogen Peroxide.

Gent you might want to do a little more research on what was done with nitrated loads.

I don't have a .45-70 but I use 110 grs of 3F OE in my .50-90 and it shoots very good using it.

I spend more time reading then posting. This is educational, no need for apologies from anyone.

A 1/2 a dozen don't sound like many from the amount of shooters I seen there. I have seen Kurt "Lead Pot" shoot at Lodi and I know he shoots PP and I know he does well shooting them.

I just stopped at the Quigley going home from a vacation to see what it is all about. I have to say that I was impressed by the amount of people that I saw on that range. I will make a effort to...

Not hard to get a marksman metal I have a couple, not much competition in that class and It's not the Hornady brass that will win you a metal. :)

I know those two guys D McD is talking about. If they are having problems with that thing you can take it to be straight talk.
You have a good scope use it and use that money for a good rifle...
Forum: Black Powder Cartridge
It never fails. Give a guy some good advice and they start an argument, or try too. Let him buy that thing and after a few setups he will say....I should have put that money in a good scope.

:D That question is like asking a Mother who's baby is the cutest hers or yours [smilie=l:
Getting a spotting scope takes research. Look through several at a match and compare them looking in dark...

Well I have to say that your the first out of three that mentioned that they make a good barrel.

Krieger, Douglas, Shiloh, Badger, Green mountain.

A while back when hunting in the UP Mich. I stopped in a saw mill looking for a plank for a muzzle loader and there was a nice piece of iron wood. I said I will take this one. The guy said that is a...
