    TC Seneca Conversion

    There is a little known law in Ohio that prohibits the resale of muzzleloaders? Hmmm... What caliber is your Seneca? I have a Seneca in 40 caliber. Nice little gun.

    October Flintlock Shoot

    Had a good shoot this past month. Got to the match early so I could get some practice shots in. Realized I had left my tray at home containing, short starter, priming flask, hammer, etc... So I ran home and grabbed it. By the time I got back, the shoot was starting. The first relay...

    size of flints

    I don't think it is really the size of the flint that matters. Most locks are content regardless of size. The jaws can expand to accomodate any size. Rather, of paramount importance is the quality of the flint! :results:

    effect of cold and humidity on accuracy

    Prolly not. But at 50 yards, you won't be too far off I imagine. Course the atmospheric conditions not only affect external ballistics but also internal ballistics as well as the explosive force of the powder. With humidity prolly the major contributor to the latter. More likely, the largest...

    slow twist

    Do I hear the rumblings of March's Muzzleloadingforum challenge????? Why don't we keep with the competition rules and stay with the 3"x5" card at 50 yards? :thumbsup: :blah: :crackup: :crackup:

    MOOSE MILK?

    Hey Bowdawg, Like the name. Anyway, here is a link to the thread. Moose Milk Stumpkiller did some R&D and came up with the recipe that I use. I have had excellent results with it. I believe if you follow along on the thread, there is also a recipe for Moose Snot (can't remember if that is...

    swabbing between rounds

    Hey Strider, Hmmm... That seems a little odd to me. Perhaps you should try some of Stumpy's Moose Milk. Do a search on it if you need the recipe. Spitting on the patch prolly ain't gettin' 'er dun. My routine for target shooting is to send a wet "milk" patch down the barrel (all the way...

    your forum user name/handle

    To make a short story long.... I used to play a lot of online games. Back when I had time to waste. Anyway, after reading Lord of the Rings for the 6th time I started using Shadowfax. I went with that for a year or so but got bored with it. One day I found a new "skin" for my online...

    The Dreaded Flinch

    A couple of things. First, for me, the flinch game becomes mental. Before each shot, I remind myself to concentrate on an easy trigger squeeze and disregard when the hammer will fall. I don't think it is necessary to have someone prime your pan (or not) to see if you are flinching. I get...

    Any good books?

    Yes, I would recommend, "The Complete Blackpowder Handbook (Complete Blackpowder Handbook), Sam Fadala" Link to book It isn't necessarily geared toward flintlock only. But I found it to be a good general book on the subject. And also, I believe there are perks to the forum if you go...

    Toy Muzzleloader At Cabela's

    That's great Musketman and thanks. I've kinda been lookin' 'round for the same thing. My 4 1/2 yo has been wanting a toy gun but I didn't want to get him a "centerfire" toy gun. Looks like a sweet toy. Maybe I get one for me and take it to the next shoot.

    October survey and future surverys

    :RO: Right you are!!! But then at least my vote would count... or not. :huh:

    October survey and future surverys

    Wow! What a great forum! Finally a place where our opinions and views are acted upon by the moderators. Now, I would also like to see a lounge area where we can kick our feet up and the moderators can serve us drinks. Perhaps a nice cozy fire... Oh and don't forget my cigar. But seriously...
