    Woodwrights school

    I used to love that show when I was growing up. Their websites has some neat stuff on it. Here is another link to a PBS site that has some of his videos on it. http://www.pbs.org/woodwrightsshop/schedule/29season_video.html Semper Fi BDA

    Need to Shim Stock Channel

    I used a similar product "pro bed" that I ordered from Midway USA. It was really easy to mix up and easy to clean up. It takes awhile to dry but even an amateur like me could figure it out and turn out a decent bedding job for a barrel channel that I cut to big. Semper Fi BDA

    Powders

    I want to preface this with the fact that I have never ordered from this site before but Buffalo Arms http://www.buffaloarms.com/Content.aspx?PAGE=Black%20Powder says that they will ship as little as 5 lbs and the prices seem pretty cheap. Semper Fi BDA

    1858 New Army revolver - legit combat arm?

    Combat is rarely as seen on TV. Even in a sustained fight over the course of a few hours there are very few fire fights that last more than a minute or two. Granted combat back then was much different than now I would still imagine that the rest of the unit could provide a sustained rate of...

    General Purpose Wipe-Down Lube for Guns

    Wow, that's the good stuff. I haven't seen that in years. The Marine Corps uses CLP now, it doesn't really dry and it surely does clog up with that middle eastern moon dust if your not careful with the quantity and application. Seems we keep taking something that works and replacing it with...

    Fixed Powder Measures

    Wow, Adui, I've owned and used a set of Lee dippers for quite some time now and never even thought to check and see if they had a black powder scale. I need to sleep more. Thanks for enlightening me. Semper Fi BDA

    Fixed Powder Measures

    Thanks Zonie, I figured somebody had to have a simple answer for that but after my preliminary internet searches it apparently became a much more complicated question.

    Fixed Powder Measures

    So question from a new guy. I understand the need to load by volume but how many CCs are in a grain? Semper Fi BDA

    Rookie's First Build

    Thanks MeteorMan, that's exactly what I was looking for and wow, I'm way worse at this searching thing than I thought because that topic should have showed up under a couple of my searches. I'm working with a double set double lever, I'll play around with it but now that I know where to start...

    Rookie's First Build

    Greetings all, I finally got ambitious and decided to try my hand at building. I’ve accumulated a 36” green mountain barrel (straight) in .45 cal, a large siler lock, and a doubleset trigger. I’m going to stock it in cherry and acquire the rest of the furniture as I go. I apologize in...

    TOTW graver question

    I'm a long long way from any kind of expert on engraving but here are two sites that appear to me at least to have some pretty good information. http://www.engravinglessons.com/Hand%20Engraving%20Resources.htm http://www.igraver.com/ Semper Fi BDA

    Looking for some simple wood projects

    If you really want to try some lathe work without the investment in an actual lathe here is a video showing how you can use your drill press as a lathe. I've done something similar with my drill press before I got a lathe. It's not perfect but for small projects like a powder or shot measure...

    Howdy

    Thanks smoothbore addict, I spent close to six months with my Army brothers out at Fort Sill learning the finer points of slinging 95lb projectiles out to 18km. I'm looking forward to learning from all the experience on this site. Semper Fi BDA

    Howdy

    Howdy all, I figure a quick introduction is the polite thing to do. I'm new to muzzleloading and am grossly under equipped. I grew up shooting a .50 cal flinter of my Dad's since at the time you could only use a flintlock for muzzleloading season in Pennsylvania. That was some time ago, I'm...
