    Browning Mountain Rifle Help

    I had sometime today to start testing some of the tips y’all gave me for getting my JBMR lines out. For starters I changed from a FF 80gr charge to a FFF 70 gr charge and had immediate success with my loading problem. I shot 5 consecutive shots which all loaded nearly as easy as the first. I was...

    Why no black powder hunting personalities

    Being in the younger side of the age spectrum of this group I can tell you all I’ve had the same questions. Big TV hunting shows can be good to watch as there is always bad ones in the group, but they’re out to make money just like all of us. Gotta make a living somewhere. I always turn to...

    Browning Mountain Rifle Help

    I have a .54 Browning Mountain rifle. After loading and firing the first shot on a clean bore the 2nd shot is almost impossible to get loaded down the barrel let alone a 3rd shot. I am shooting a .530 PRB with a .010” lubed patch. Do I need to go down to a .525 ball? I’m just confused because...

    Two Feathers’s Pan Primers

    I recently contacted Two Feathers about his Elk Horn Pan primers that he makes. He was right quick with a response and extremely pleasant to do business with! He kept me updated on the process and made sure I got exactly what I asked for. That meant I got a beautifully crafted and aged pan...
