    Hatfields pop up on both Gunbroker and AuctionArms all the time.There's a .36 cal fullstock percussion on Gunbroker right now with the current bid at 400.00 dollars.

    Saw my first HATFIELD ...in person

    A .36 cal Hatfield flinter is for sale on the Track Of the Wolf web site. Price is 599.00. That's a little on the high side, but I'm betting the rifle will sell pretty fast.

    Steam Clean

    Both the bore and breech get very clean.The steam is so hot,the gunk just melts away.The wire brush helps remove any left over powder, and the patches come out clean after only a few passes.

    58 calibre moulds

    Jack I had the same problem with my 61 Springfield. I found an old .580 cal Lyman mould on Gunbroker last year, started casting, and the mini's shot great for me. It took me six moulds to find one that worked in my rifle.So keep pluging away until you find one that works.

    Steam Clean

    For about the last year,I have been cleaning my muzzleloaders with a home steam cleaner and wire brush. The steam cleaner gets the barrel so hot,I have to use gloves when cleaning.After it cools down,I run dry patches and then bore butter. Works great.Has anyone else tried this?.

    Anyone heard of or shot a?

    I noted prices from 425.00 to 600.00 dollars for a new A&H flinter. Which for the rifle seems to be a little high,In my opinion. I will go for a good used rifle every time and save 200.00 to 300.00 bucks. That's a lot of powder and lead. I paid 300.00 for mine and it looks like brand new. I...

    Anyone heard of or shot a?

    I have one, it shoots well and has never failed to fire if loaded properly. Nice wood to. I got mine used at Gunbroker.Com from a guy in Utah. They are nice rifles, but I would try to avoid paying the high price for a new one.Mine is the 1:66 barrel and shoots well at up to 100 yards using a...
