    Another barrel for Lyman Deerstalker

    Does anyone out there make barrels for the Lyman Deerstalker? I'm specifically looking for a .32-.36 caliber for small game. Is it possible to just switch out barrels for the same gun? Is it stupid to want two different barrels for the same gun?

    More than likely I'll be shooting a patched round ball. May experiment with conicals though.

    New flintlock break-in?

    Hello all, I just bought a new Lyman Deerstalker yesterday and am very excited to shoot it. But I got to wondering if there is anything I should do to it before I shoot it? I do have some flintlock experience,but I know Dad and I didn't do anything special to our first flintlock before we shot...
