    Same here. It's all I ever use. I've never seen the need to buy the more expensive brands, as it does all I ask of it.

    On the Pietta, and I think all 51's for that matter, the sight will be press fit into the flat of the barrel. So you will most likely have to cut a dovetail and insert a taller blade. Dovetails look...

    I second that about the 8-bore, and the one I fired was a single. I've never fired a 4-bore and don't want to, since I value my retinas. I do have a 12-bore made for ball and 7 drams, and she is just...

    Late 70's or early 80's. Their supplier's powder plant in Sweden blew up. Bad all around. They had some good stuff. Hot primers.

    I'd have to say my 73' in .44wcf. There are many reasons for this, and all the settlers that went West knew them well. I would love to say my 95' in .30-40, but it's 'too much gun' to be as versatile...

    Not sure about anyone else, but if I saw wasps that were 2" long, I'd be wearing 15th century armour and breaking out the 12 ga. with #9 shot. When I was in former Yugoslavia, they had the biggest...

    It may be boring for it to be the only one, but if only one, it would have to be a 12 gauge. It's just like the old Brown Bess, there is nothing much you can't do with it.

    Good to hear about your Miroku!! Mine has become an actual living breathing part of me, the 24" 73' blued sporting model. I stick with the old standard of 8grs. Unique for 200's, and these do all I...

    I've never needed more than .44wcf on deer or hogs of any size, but that being said, I would never ever go with a .357, it just doesn't have the ooomph. Most of the time, the .44 boolet is caught...

    With mine, I simply used one of those little hammers with the plastic head. It takes quite a bit of tapping, but moves it over just enough to shoot again and tap again until they are dead on. If I...

    I've been shooting cap&ball since the 80's, and have owned just about every model and brand that has come on the market, except for Piettas, which I will not spend money on. If I were to buy a new...
