Fellow flinters, I believe I have a stimulating question that will be sure to generate plenty of opinions:
For fastest ignition time should a rifle be primed with 4f or 5f out of a priming horn, or primed from the shooting horn?
I'm not looking for the amount of powder in the pan. Nor am I seeking where to position it for best results, each lock is it's own adventure.
It is my belief that few shooters way back when used a priming horn as much as we are led to believe, yet I have used one for 40 years. I have been lucky enough to take a couple National titles and several State titles during this time, not bragging, just qualifying statements and looking for answers.
Tell us here on the forum what you prime with and what are your reasons please.
