    If you remove the barrel from the stock, they are stamped on the underside as to who made them.

    Pedersoli 2nd Model Brown Bess

    You can get a whole pad of blank newsprint for cheap and cut your own forever. I make at least 2000 cartridges a year (for the last 5 years) and I still have at least half the pad left.

    Bass Pro Shop

    Yeah, they passed that after Newtown. I used to buy bulk at Hoffman's all the time. FYI, You can't buy ammo in MA either. You need to be a MA resident and have a MA FID or LTC.

    You most definitely can GIVE it away. However it is illegal to do something like split the costs of a bulk order with someone.

    TOW, where can I find some

    A much cheaper substitute that can be had in various coarseness is hemp. Hemp Traders sells hemp fibers (looks just like Tow Linen) and even some that look like cotton balls by the kilo for almost nothing (18 to 26 per kilo). For reference 2 kilos will fill up a big green trashbag.

    What to do with leftover grease?

    Minié ball in a smoothbore

    I can't find the Winchester test anywhere. I would like to read them. The patent (which would require proof of claims to be issued) states that it spins 10k rpm at 50 yards. Compare that with a rifle/bullet (40k rpm at 50 yards and while significantly slower, it does spin
