    Asking again. Best load for a .50 cal?

    Pyrodex is harder to ignite; with the offset nipple blast, it is not a sure thing. I have had to go so far as to open the drum access screw and add 4gr of FFFFg under the nipple to get things going. I don't buy pyrodex anymore. My residual pyrodex gets used up by dropping half the 90gr charge as...

    Asking again. Best load for a .50 cal?

    My most accurate load in the CVA Mountain rifle is .490, .10 patch cut at muzzle, 90gr FFg Goex, and moose milk spray for patch lube. If I can see the 4" gong at 100yds, it rings. Misses are usually attributable to needing another spray of target paint.

    Thinking of buying a pedersoli shotgun

    My old Pedersoli circa 1972 has browned barrels and also weighs just shy of 6lbs. Choked IC/IM. The IM barrel is devastating on paper at 25yds, easily good to 40yds with 70gr FF, a single 1/4” felt lubed in olive oil and beeswax, 1 1/8oz shot, and OS card. The IC is just OK at 25yds and might...

    Prettiest Cap and Ball

    Honestly I have no idea; it came with the ROA and I don't see maker markings. Sorry.

    SOLD CVA Mountain Rifle

    Mine is USA, but the browning finish was nearly gone when I got it and frankly the pewter finished parts looked cheap. My smith has given all the steel components a Colt Blue and adjustable Redfield aperature sights and front globe... it looks and shoots great. Extremely accurate. If your barrel...

    A Fouling Test

    Try a light spritz of 4:1 moosemilk on the patch. Always keeps me on target and easy loading. I shoot at a 100 yard pie plate size gong. I think Ballistol is every bit as good as mink oil. The water dilution dissolves the fouling on each loading. No problems with powder getting wet. I don't much...

    Question about powder

    Be careful with windex. Some versions can remove bluing. Moose milk is a MUCH better black powder solvent and does not harm finishes.
  15. D

    What am I doing wrong? Confused

    I use a fine mist of moose milk on every patch before the ball goes in. No rough bore loading, no failures to fire. I detest pyrodex and 777. I use FFg goex. Wonderlube works for storing a projectile in a bore for hunting (where a spit patch would induce rusting) but is not recommended for...
