    Why this muzzleloader regulations

    When I first moved to Virginia, I couldn’t hunt during black powder season with my Brown Bess because the law specifically said you had to have a rifle of at least .45 caliber. Now you can use a .40, a smoothbore, a cap-and-ball revolver, or even one of these BS guns that load a stick of powder...

    Getting ready to shoot a matchlock as a newbie

    The first time I fired a matchlock, the guys warned me not to squeeze the sear bar too quickly, which I did. You know how if you stub a cigarette into an ashtray full of sand, it snuffs immediately? Yeah, you can do that with 3F, too. 😳 Jay

    Conical bullets in a cap and ball revolver

    According to my arrowhead scale the conicals are almost exactly 150gr. They’re .607” long and .381” at their widest, with a .380 band at the base, which is easiest to see on the middle bullet in the last photo. The mould is an old Navy Arms that came with my .36, and is marked .36. If you want...

    Joann's - what am I doing wrong ?

    Yeah, they’re not shipping drill, and when I ordered it for pickup from the local Joann’s, they let me order and pay for it, then sent an email saying it was out of stock and they refunded my money and gave me a coupon. I wrote back and asked why I needed a coupon if they didn’t have what I...

    Gardening Round2 Deer problem

    I found that making little tinfoil cups of peanut butter and hanging them on the electric fence was remarkably effective. They give it a lick and ZAP! Like a mouthful of bees. Second time they fall for it is generally the last time they fall for it. Jay

    Howdy from Charles City- technically still in Tidewater! 🤣 The Department of Wildlife Resources has a few sighting-in ranges, but they close them from April to September for some ridiculous reason. The closest one to you is actually here, on the Chickahominy WMA. EDITED: wouldn’t help you...

    Update: After I saw this thread, I contacted John to order a couple of things. He said that some of them were not in stock, and he wasn’t going to order any more- having just turned 90, he’s looking to sell the business and retire. He still has some inventory, and is still an awesome vendor to...
