Btw, 44 years ago, when I got my first muzzleloader a friend of dad's brought over 20 lbs of Babbitt. I cast it all into .440 RB and shot it.

The moderators are human as well... ok, most are human��. I can say this because I am one on another site... lol.

We never cut it then froze it, but did cut it and can it. Yes, run the back of knife to Milk it, you'll get better after you bite a few pieces of cob.

On the farm mom always rendered the fat from beef and hogs.
She put a cup of water in a Huge pot, sweet ice 2 burners, put fine chopped fat in it, and a lid. Low heat a few hours. The water...

I took a cooking class. It showed us how Garlic salt and onion salt are a huge waste. It's well over 50% salt.
I bought a big bag of garlic powder from Amazon, as well as 7 Spice Japanese...

They also work great for loading a Remington Model 8. I use them for my 35 Remington

Looking for a mold to drop a boolit from 300 to 350 grains.

Thanks

It was the 45-70. Of course the Springfield was the favorite... it was made at a government arsenal. They had plenty of military personnel there, which meant a faster promotion could be had than...

I hear crickets

Looking for .515 Mold that drops 330-350 grs, tapered nose to help feeding. Also, any centerfire brass for the 56-50, and dies for same.

I'll take S, 575213

Btw, Tanner Molds in England can make you a RB mold for almost anything, and cheap.
I know many muzzleloaders who need a unique RB have turned to them. The son now runs the business.

IIRC, English black powder was sized from #2-#8. Getting finer in grind as the numbers increased, much as the F system is here in America. It'd be interesting to learn what number powder they...

I recently read, from an old article, from I believe JJ Pourdeux of Champlins guns. The article was about regulating doubles. IIRC, it's all about powder charge. Rounds crossing need a different...

I have a couple Orion muzzleloader barrels. They are held in high esteem by my mentor. I'll definitely call them. Thanks so much.

I guess relining it wouldn't make it heavier, but being it's a 54 it's larger across the flats than a 50 and is plenty heavy. I talked to Mr Hoyt, but talked myself out of it.

My current barrel is Green Mountain 54 muzzleloader barrel. Someone was gonna turn the Sporting Model into an inline muzzleloader.
I talked to Bobby, he said he can line it to 50, but omg it's...

Thanks for the info on barrels, was hoping to find a preference. Shilen doesn't make a barrel over .458". I'm positive I won't find a drop in barrel. I think my Atlas 12"X 36" will handle most. ...

Does anyone know when Remington went from the roller mounted extractor to the spring mounted one at 9 o'clock?

Btw, there's a sporting model no 1 online for sale, built by Ed Webber of Big Timber. I poached about a dozen pics to help with stock building.

I bet I could. But hindsight being clearer, I'll sell the 500 and source some 50-2 1/2"

50-70, 50-90, or 50 Basic.

His videos are where I got the idea. Wanted a RB for decades. Never thought I'd own a Sporting model.
