    CCI cap problems

    The CCI caps are longer than the Rem caps. That`s why they don`t fit. Take your nipple out & turn it in a drill by the threads while filing it down a little & the CCI`s will fit.

    Advantage's and Disadvantage's

    You know guys, one thing I don`t understand on here. You all seem to praise Dutch Shoultz & his advice on shooting BP firearms, but you down him on his proven method of waterless cleaning of the firearms.

    Flash cup?

    I have flash cups on all my ML`s. They work fine. If you use the ones that are angled, just make sure you mount it so the lowest part is at 2:00 while looking down at it. This way all the flash from the cap will be forced away from the breech & little or no crud will form on the surrounding area.

    CCI cap problems

    Weather you use #10`s or 11`s, the CCI caps are longer than the Remington caps. That`s why when using the CCI caps you have to hit them twice. The first blow knocks them all the way down on the nipple & the second blow fires it. If you don`t believe me measure them.

    Zouvae shooters ????

    Thanks much guys for the replies. I was thinking nipple problem myself, but wanted to get your input on it. Both the musket nip & the #11 nip have an opening of about 3/16" on the threaded end. Seemed to be awful big to me. I will get a new #11 nip for it. I want to use the #11 nip because I...

    I took my new to me Zouvae rifle by Navy Arms to the range yesterday & shot off 48 rounds of Minnie balls. I am quite pleased as how it shoots & it`s very accrete. At 100yds. as long as I was doing my part, shot after shot into a 8" bull. Now here is the problem. Just about every shot the...

    Which one should I get????

    OK, I`m already a BP, ML shooter. I don`t hunt anymore, but I do punch a lot of paper from 25 yds. out to 100 yds. I`m interested in getting one of these rifles. They are both Pedersoli`s, they are both in like new condition, both same $$ within $25, & both 50 cal. perc. One is a Kentucky & the...

    Traditions long rifles?????

    OK, here I go again. Does any one know anything about Traditions 50 cal Pa or Kentucky long rifles. Like how do they shoot (accurate) finish, etc. They look the same except the Pa 50 has a fancy stock on it. Thanks in advance.
