Save some money and use 3f in the pan. I've used 2f in mine at times.

Yep, for the sake of simplicity, I use 3f in the pan and main charge. Quite a few people use 3f even in their .62 smoothbores!

Just what my post said.
That I like the Glass Filled Nylon stock that came on the OP's new rifle. The rifle the OP is tickled pink with. A solid knock around rifle.

i tend lately to use whatever is down the bore as my prime. less moving parts to confuse me!
with a brand new gun it is prudent though to have the different grades of powder to see what it likes best.
you have stepped through the looking glass into another world . enjoy.

Enjoy the new rig. Looking forward to the range report.
good for you Sir!
I shot one of those one time when a friend brought it over, I wasn't expecting much but the lock sparked like crazy, the gun went off very fast and it surprisingly accurate.

Congratulations on your new rifle. You were wise to get a selection of powders. Now you experiment with each and develop your loads.

Congrats on the rifle!
In amongst the goodies, did you get a powder measure? If not, post back here and someone will help you find something you can safely use as an improvised measure--fired rifle cartridge, etc.
And have fun shooting!

OK--was just hoping you weren't planning on the old "hold the ball in the palm of your hand and cover it with powder" approach! Don't forget a touch hole pick: when I took my first rifle to the range, I did. . . .
