Shot my Uberti SS 5.5" 1858 Remington for the first time in a few years. I'll be doing more cap and ball shooting, if I can find the caps.

sanded and stained the cherry stock. started the browning process on the barrel.
will be fun to get the stock color i want. of course i could use it to shoot the dirt that poured pink on the Constitution case.
maybe leave it and gift it to my wife. she looked at it and actually laughed!

Ok...I peeked (not quite ready to go big on it yet....but I can do a few things to start.)
Here's what is inside....
And from the look of the comb / wrist area, it looks like I have some curl, as well as beautiful grain, that I can play with... by feel, it's a smooth area, so that looks like it will be legit (I haven't worked with curly maple before, so the adventure begins).

Nice! I thought for sure it was a new snow shovel.
the bevel bros. did a test in muzzle blasts several years ago that showed that there was no statistical difference in accuracy weather or not a patch was cut at the muzzle or cut square so after that i lube up the material and cut it into patches while watching tv can do several matches worth in a hour

That's a nice looking shotgun. Are the barrels a matt finish? I like it for a hunting gun

put second coat of tru-oil over the laurel mountain cherry stain that i topped with aqua fortis.
got exactly what i wanted for a color. best i can do as far as picture's. phone camera.
another 6 coats of finish and she will be ready to shoot.
first coat with 12 hour drying, then knocked back with 0000 steel wool.
oh yeah, also put third treatment of browning the barrel. it is coming along nicely.

For up here, that's would be a legit guess
Super idea!!!
Links below for the interested:
2" ball from Amazon - they have other diameters available if you so want.
1 1/4" iron nipple at Lowes - other sized also available
Thanks for the compliment on the patch cutting idea. I can NOT take credit for it however. One of my “Girty” brothers who worked at a gravel pit here in WNY came up with this method. He apparently had access to many large ball bearings that were used in crushing machines. Sadly, Al “He Who Kicks Deer” Lange passed away years ago. Every time I use this patch cutting technique, I fondly remember Al.
