    Barrel browning, splotchy on some areas

    Browning a 40 cal barrel. Length too long to heat up in our oven. I used a torch to heat for the first coat, part came out great, other part blotchy. Is this a heat or cleaning issue. Plan on using a heat gun for the next coat.

    There was a gunsmith in Troy, NY, NE of Albany with a very good reputation. Can’t recall his name, but I’ve seen Troy, NY on many rifles in the north and south.

    Cleaning jag getting stuck

    Hope you’re not using a button jag rather than a cleaning jag. The button jag does not have the tapered relief between the jag end and rod end. This will exacerbate the jamming in the bore. All other advice is sound and should solve your issue.

    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    Thoughts on Percussion Caps

    I’ve got plenty also, but hoping to stay healthy enough to leave few caps and minimal powder for my hiers to worry about. When market went kaflooie, I stocked up. Have shared with other loyal BP enthusiasts I’ve met through the years.

    Any other crazy kids out there?

    When I was 6-12, we would buy salt Peter and sulfur from a small store. Proprietor’s name, “Sparky”! We had a kinda formula for black powder, he’d even ask, “ You boys makin black powder? “. Went on for quite sometime, until we packed it in a pipe with screw on ends. Post mushroom cloud and...
