    TC White Mountain Carbine Stock

    I have had a TC White Mountain Carbine Stock in my possession for a while, and it is well overdue for a new barrel. The original barrel was a .54 and I would prefer to keep it that way, or possibly go up to .58 in the Octagon to Round profile. Would anyone have any recommendations for a...

    White Mountain Carbine Stock

    I have had in my possession for some time now a T/C .54 Side lock, White Mountain Carbine Stock. It is long overdue for a new barrel. I would prefer to keep it at .54 or larger (58/62). Anyone have any barrel or smith recommendations? Many thanks SB

    Jaeger Rifle

    This will be my first non-off the shelf rifle. I currently have a GPR flint in .54 and a traditions Crockett. It is my hope one day to have a fully custom rifle. For now something like this I'm pretty excited about. Would there be one builder you would recommend over another? Are the price...

    Jaeger Rifle

    I am interested in picking up one of these in .62. Initially I was considering going with TVM, but now I see they have removed this model from their list of rifles. So now I'm looking at either a in the white from track of the wolf, or Tip Curtis It will be my first "in the white build". Has...

    Am I the only one in the Great Lakes Region?

    Northwest Lower Michigan...East Jordan. The Jordan River Valley is a beautiful place abundant with game, great for a stroll with the flinter. Happy New Years to all

    Shooting a drone w/ muzzleloader?

    Glad to see the UAS situation resolved itself. Most certainly had to be Pilot Error :headslap: Was at a aviation conference this past fall. A story was told of a father shooting down a Drone that was, to say the least, peeping on his daughter as she was sunbathing in the back yard. The father...

    Shooting a drone w/ muzzleloader?

    Be very careful. I believe if the UAS (Unmanned Aircraft System) as its now called by the FAA, is over 1/2 pound, it should have a registration number. It is unlawful to fire at U.S registered aircraft. I believe it is a felony. I'm an airport manager of an airport in Northwest Lower MI. I...

    New ROA

    Took the ROA to the range for the first time yesterday, man what a fun time that was. I will eventually get some GOEX FFF but for this trip I used some Triple 7. To say the least I was pleased with the outcome. The first picture is of the first 6 rounds out of the old army. I made some...

    New ROA

    AzBpBurner, Thanks for forwarding me the link to the serial numbers. According to that list, this ROA was manufactured in 2007. I looked it over really well and don't see any evidence of use :hmm: . So it must have been in someones safe or buried on the back room self of some distributor...

    New ROA

    Was in a local sporting goods store prior to this past Christmas. I wanted to check out what they had for cap&ball revolvers and what was sitting on the shelf, 2 brand new ROA one with fixed sights one with adjustable. Both were 7 1\2 in blued. Right then I slapped some money down on the...

    Brush Stuck in barrel

    I did a search online and I found something similar. I took an empty 35 Whelen case (an 06 or similar case would work the same) Knock out the primer - Cut the case neck off at the shoulder - open up the flash hole slightly - Feed a strong string through the flash hole - Tie a large knot at the...

    Brush Stuck in barrel

    Good afternoon. I've got myself a conundrum. I was out with a buddy shooting my GPR. After the first shot I attempted to brush the barrel as I always do and the brush along with the cap its screwed into came off the rod about a third way up from the breach. I'm assuming it will have to go to a...

    Hunting with .62 Cal?

    Excess650, Thanks for sharing. That sure is a good looking rifle and equally impressive white tail. Did you by chance measure the expanded width of that rb? And you used the term hardened round ball, what is the purpose of that? Is it for penetration? Is it an accuracy thing? Just curious.

    Hunting with .62 Cal?

    Thank you all for your impute. Being new to this site, I'm quickly learning there is much to learn from all of our experiences. I liked my 54 percussion hawken and how the 54 caliber performed. I've since passed that rifle onto a friend and now hunt with a .54 GPR Flintlock of which, I really...

    Hunting with .62 Cal?

    Was curious how many folks are out there hunting with a .62 caliber rifle? I currently have a .54 GPR flinter that I really enjoy. Haven't killed any deer with it yet, however I know the .530/.535 ball is a great ball for deer in that I've killed many with a percussion Hawken in 54. I...

    BANG..., FLOP

    Well, so far to date I've taken 6 deer with a .535 ball out of a 28 in Hawken cap lock and one with a 435 gr maxi-ball. First one was bedded and never stood up. The rest were standing within 75 yds and all were taken with shots into the boiler room wrecking the lungs or the plumbing. I have yet...
