    Used ML

    I ordered a kit gun. Realized it was too much technical metal/woodworking for me and returned it; ordered a used Pedersoli perc. .50 cal (1-48" ROT) (39" barrel) instead. Looking for 1)input on cleaning before firing, 2)pre-firing inspection list, any other useful help/info? Still haven't fired...

    Cleaning ML

    Still don't have rifle kit yet, but came across an item I need help on. Researching cleaning methods, I found one outfit that says to never remove the breach plug for cleaning(should only be done by gunsmith). The other says every 25-50 shots remove it for cleaning. Thanks in advance

    Very green Newbie

    Just ordered a "Bedford Co.(.50 cal)perc" kit. Can somebody steer me to good basic info for getting started in BP/ML. I am interested in avoiding as many "pitfalls" as possible to make my BP/ML experience a good one. Also, can someone recommend a good finish to put on a maple ML stock? Thanks...
