Regular brown gravy mix is rather tasty. Also possible you just didn't mix the au ju lean enough. It's also hard to go wrong with basic beef bullion and corn starch. Just adjust to taste.

I recently got the cheapest compressor I could find on eBay. Hated to do it, but I got the vevor at $150. Chinese knock off and I hate that, but I wish I had more to spend. Anyway, I'm satisfied so...

If you are really looking for the best, awlfare is hard to beat. Could be hard to find depending on where you are though.

I just found that I had loaded some 250gn swcs and not gotten quite all the way to the top of the crimp groove and it wouldn't feed. Get them nice and deep on the crimp groove and they're working...

I just got a rossi 92 in .44 earlier this week. I am rather impressed all in all. I do maintain that the Henry is a nicer gun over all though I don't honestly know in what way it might be better. It...

I was kidding about the pine. And in terms of color, I think the color is good. It's just a tease that the grain doesn't match the color.
And I'm not a fan of the brass either. I'd turn down an...

But no, seriously? Why does it go grey every time I try to do anything on this site that is not through tapatalk. Something is amiss.

Well the rossi isn't either. But it's hard and that's what really matters. No homo.

My 99 is from the mid 70s I believe. Pretty sure the 99 is actually walnut. At least, savage has convinced me of such.

I've been itching for a few lever guns lately so I've been stopping by local gunshops frequently looking for them. I stopped in one pawn shop so much I'm pretty sure they thought I was casing the...

So I got a minnow trap. As I was setting it out with a fresh egg in it I realized, I have no idea what I'm going to do to deal with this snake without risking getting bit. I don't think I can get...

I got a minnow trap and some mouse scent goo on the way. After I killed one last week my neighbor, couple hundred yards through a patch of woods, killed one today.
I think those rounds are too long. Are you using a really big powder? If you have the space just seat them deeper. I check 10 rounds and if one doesn't plunk in my barrel or gauge I seat deeper. Just...

No kidding. I realized after this experience that I always check thoroughly where I am going to be plus 16" as a habit after seeing so many on my land. I mean I check this range thoroughly. This one...

Thanks so much for all the advice. I picked this gun up knowing nothing and I've learned a lot quickly since I did but your post brings it all together. I got a lee r.e.a.l. mold on the way to make...

I see now. Sorry about that. Thanks for pointing that out. Should have seen that.

Just had a close call with this one. Some #4 duck shot made it peacefully progress to past tense on June 21st, 2021.

What section should it have gone in? I find the forum selection on this board to be rather limited. I find I always end up chosing the most pertinent subforum and that I rarely have a topic that...

Okay yes these just dropped in my lap it seems I do have a bit more than I thought to learn before shooting these.
Forum: Black Powder Paper Patching
Yeah I was wondering about that. I have on hand pyrodex fffg equivalent and some 777. Would either of those work?
Forum: Black Powder Paper Patching
.440? The bore is measuring about 460. Will the patch make up that much? Midway has a .445 in stock

25 gr? The data I found for a round ball said 18-30. Not sure what the round ball weighs but it's much less than the 230 gr bullet. Was thinking about starting with 10 or 12.
