    TC New Englander and Black Mountain Magnum

    yes, I'd say you are correct. They appear to be the same "family" of rifles. I have a BMM .54, which is a very nice rifle with all of the nicer features found on "modern rifles".If I'm not mistaken, it was touted as being a primitive arm made using the most modern materials and features or...

    Knight Elite Prices

    thanks, I'm already a member there and a number of other sites also. I was just trying to spread out in hopes of finding one on clearance or a sale. Lots of good folks in these forums watch out for each other. I did not know the reason for the removal of the modern categories. I do now, thanks...

    Knight Elite Prices

    Can anyone point at a great price on a new Knight Elite .50 rifle. Sorry, as I could not find a category that fit for this posting. I guess the modern category is gone??

    Fast twist 50-54cal side hammmers

    My T/C Black Mountain Magnum .54 has a 1:38 twist, which is different than the .50 version, which has the 1:28 twist to it. It's a really nice rifle - shooting for the first time this weekend upcoming

    T/c Renegade trigger guard

    I am buying a T/c renegade, but I dont care for the stock trigger guard with the curls and such. It has double triggers. I'd like to switch it out to just a plain guard or something less ornate, maybe like whats on the lyman deerstalker. Anyone have any experience with this or suggestions. I...

    I'm buying a 1:66 T/C round ball renegade in .54 caliber. I have acquired a number of .54 caliber hornady great plains 425g bullets. Was wondering if anyone has experience with concials in this twist rate type barrel. Thanks. Pete

    Black Mountain Magnum Rifles

    Does anyone have any information about them. I know they are T/C products and probably pretty good, but I'm looking for actual experience with the guns. I'm also looking for the twist rate for the .50 caliber. Thanks. Pete

    Hunting Sights

    Gentleman, I recently purchased a Cabelas .54 Hawken. Can anyone direct me to a good set of open sights. I saw the Lyman 16/37 set, which is factory on the deerstalker rifles - I think - looks good to me. I'm also very interested in a peep sight such as the lyman 57sml. My rifle would probably...

    Patching

    I've got some T/C pillow ticking patches with the yellow lube on them. They appear to be old but in sealed packs. I've got 4 packs. They are for .58 caliber .015 thickness. Will I be able to use these effectively out of a .54 rifle using roundballs?

    T/C Renegade Lock amongst other things

    Can anyone provide me information on the quality of the T/C 1970's percussion lock found on the .50 renegade. I was thinking of upgrading to a better lock. Does anyone make a drop in replacement lock of better quality? Thanks. Pete

    .58 Green Mountain Barrel

    I was thinking of getting a drop in green mountain barrel for my renegade in .58 caliber. track of the wolf has the 1:70 twist for 139.00 I think. Anywhere else I might get a better price? Anyone have experience with a .58 roundball barrel?? What do you think? Thanks. Pete
