Thanks John, I was out and about and found some bore butter today but wife has Crisco. Will use 10 grains (sorry not grams) :lol2: as you suggest. Balls came in today. Waiting for the small brass measurer now. Should be good to go soon. :party29:
Thanks all. Well today was a great day for son and I. Well let me start by saying that Redders is now one of our favorite shops. Great people, nice selection of guns and fair prices for the times. So much so that I bought a Henry H001T 22lr lever action rifle for my son that I had promised him...
Redding's has caps? I will call them. Can't fined them anywhere.Thanks. I ordered 45cal .440 balls today from Brown and measure tool from Amazon. Going to try and use Mink oil paste on cotton cleaning wads which I have to get started. Seen a guy use that on utube.
If this works I might have to pick up a 1858 Remington. Love the ones with 5.5 barrel. A lot of Out of stock... :sad20: Or prices as we all know are crazy.
Thanks all, Found a shop on rt 462 in York that had the Goex FFF. Bought a pound of it. Tomorrow I have some places to call from on line for caps. A lot are out of stock. The pistol is what people call the Lincoln pistol. Has a small nipple. About .175, about 5/16. Son and I can't wait to fire...
Took a family trip to Gettysburg Monday and bought a black powder 45cal John W Booth pistol. First time for us having a black powder gun. Needed some TLC but now its cleaned and repaired. Now the ?. Where is the best place to buy powder around southern York Co if you even can now? Found some...
If it was me and it's more about rain flow I would lower the right side gutter and put on new down spout. Might even give it a little more uniform look. Good luck.
That's what I thought but I'm no history buff. I don't wish for a civil war. I know from stories and the lack of them from my father that war is hell. I didn't know until a few years ago that my father landed on the beach on D day and served about two years over seas. Hit by a mortar in his leg...
Like Mr Charlton Heston said "From my cold dead hands." If there was a civil war and all was totally free again from these unconstitutional laws could we pack the radical left up and sail them to China or North Korea? :D
