    Johnson Peep Sight

    Has anyone ever used the Johnson peep sight that is sold by Muzzle loaders Builders Supply. My eyes are not what they used to be and I am thinking about installing a peep sight on my Investment Arms Hawken. I would like to see some photos of one installed on a rifle.

    Wedge Shoots Loose

    I have a Pietta 44 cal Navy. Sometimes when firing, the wedge shoots loose. Is there anything I can do to prevent the wedge from slipping out or is it just the nature of the beast?
