    FOR SALE Morse carbine from Rifle Shoppe kit

    I used a Lee bullet mold and cut it down by one Band and one groove so it is about 350 grains and .515 diameter

    I had some interest, but it did not sell. It comes with 10 cases, reloading tools, and the bullet mold ship for $2800 my lowest price. Thank you for your interest.

    John Meunier schuetzen restoration project

    I have sent it to Bruce to get the stock repaired. The false muzzle does have a recess for the patch About 7/8 diameter. I don’t know exactly what the twist rate is, but it is faster than a round ball gun. The bore is .420 . I happen to have a picket mold that is .410 at the base that I will try...

    thanks for your input. I found a fellow that’s done it before and is willing to tackle it. He does good work .

    That is the way to do it. I have had many students that were afraid to start for fear of making a mistake. It keeps them from attempting anything. Consider it a prototype as you say of it works great if not you just learned what not to do. Keep us apprised of your progress.

    Gorning underhammer

    That is a very good little book. It would definitely get a person started building some under hammers with very little equipment. attached are some pictures of some other under hammer books that anyone that likes them should have. And of course, the nude Roberts book on muzzleloading rifle.

    Yeah, I kind of copied Niedner’s stock shape on the one that I built. It is pictured in the Ned Roberts book on the muzzleloading rifle.

    I will contact them. I could stick it back together but that’s not my experience. I’d like somebody that’s done it before. Thank you for the lead.

    Yes, I’m a member there and have been since the early 80s but they load them in the breech.
