    Pedersoli Indian Trade Gun First Shots

    I finally shot my Indian Trade Gun yesterday. It was a first try so I only used shot. However, I was really surprised on how well it patterned at 25 Yards. Using No. 6 shot it was even and well centered. It was a very basic load: One Nitro card, one Fiber wad cut in half and used both , 1...

    T/C Hawken Lock Repaired!

    Back in December the lock on my 1975 T/C Hawken broke down. It wouldn't stay on full cock. I was going to take it apart, but T/C has a life time warranty . So, I sent it in. It came back this week fixed, cleaned, lubed, and better than before. All for no charge. That is hard to beat! BI...

    .485 Round Ball Mould

    I have a Uberti Hawken in .50 Cal. It's a good shooter but the bore is tight. With a .490 RB the biggest patch I can use is .015. They work but I have a bunch of old T/C patches that go about .018. They won't load with the .490 balls. I just ordered a .485 mould, I think they will work with...

    .36 Cal. Flinter Load

    Hi all, this is my first post on this forum. I have shot caplocks for years but am new to flintlocks. I have a Frontier Maple Standard Flintlock model from Pedersoli in .36 Cal. What would you suggest for a starting load? I have Goex and Swiss powder in 3f and Goex 4f to prime. Thanks!
