    TC patriot 45 Good/Bad?

    Thank you for all the replies. I was aware about breaking the pistols at the wrist from loading on a stand. I load my Plains pistols wedged against my hip. I shoot them in the field so I load from the bag. I think I'm going to pass on it and be happy with my pair of plains pistols.

    I have a pair of cap locks in .50 into 54. As well as matching plains pistols. They are absolutely wonderful rifles. In fact my 50 is a 1-32 fast twist and shoots patched roundball just as well as my 54 slow twist??

    Sorting round balls

    A few years back I spent some time weighing and sorting balls and in fact some of my I would intentionally Drill or notch and damage them.
