    Traditions Crockett rifle

    The ramrod doesn't even fit the thimbles. I mean you can actually wabble the ramrod around when installed . Either the thimbles are the wrong ones or the ramrod or both. For the price of 550.00 plus tax of 6%. I will passing this one. I'm a little concerned about buying one on line now.

    Which powder for over 30inch barrels

    Traditions recommends 2f for 30 and over barrels in my 50 cal. What are you shooting in the long barrel. From the owners manual for 32 cal they say 3f. Was trying to just use one powder for both.

    #32 drill bit

    I couldn't find one at Brownell web sight. I am beginning to wonder if the two Dowell pins are really needed to pin that part of the stock on this Kentucky rifle kit.
