    Nock Volley Gun

    When you think about it you're touching off half again as much as a 10 bore heavy goose load, sounds like sooooo much fun 😀.

    Sows ear CVA Hawken.

    That birch stock really looked pretty good after Kiwi shoe polish for stain and hand rubbed line seed and turpentine.

    .45 Caliber: Deer?

    A gentleman called WDM Bell pretty well proved that bullet placement trumps energy or diameter even on the largest and thickest hide such as elephant.

    .45 Caliber: Deer?

    At reasonable distances. 45 in a rifle works well, in an ROA I've killed 3 blacktails at distances under 50 yards all one shot kills but conditions were pretty darn close to perfect, broadside stationary.

    Breech plug removal. Jag and cloth stuck in barrel

    If you tie several feet of bright ribbon to the exposed end of the ramrod it's kinda pretty, plus it's way easier to find afterwards.

    Caps Made In Idaho

    Add in the site process and permits, plus public opposition to what they will term an explosives plant and you have a process that would take a decade or two and still get ruled against and it's no wonder that no new players are rushing forward to build a new plant.

    How loud?

    Huh? You need to speak up I'm a little bit hard of hearing in that ear. Sure wish that we had known this and talked about it 60 years ago, maybe I could hear now-a-days.

    Gun Lost :’(

    And their people always claim that their system is the most efficient and cost-effective solution. Yeah right.

    rate(s) of twist chosen

    Military and builders did an amazing amount of research in several areas including both long range and rate of fire, both of which were of interest to sportsman and Military planers which made money available 😀.

    And you can fry eggs in the excess.

    Interesting info from the Lewis and Clark expedition

    My predecessors called sticks through the air arrows and thrived quite well for a few thousand years with nothing better.
