I am picking up a Brown Bess later today. I've been firing smokepoles for nearly 40 years; this is my first flinter.
I have been running through the 240+ page thread on BP. I had some questions:
1) What is the best beginner's method that requires the least initial outlay and gives the best results. Is it the CIA method?
2) If I jump in with both feet, is Fly still making those puck makers?
3) For a Brown Bess, is there any special considerations when making BP. I assume a 2F-3F final product suffices?
