    SOLD Cabelas 50 Caliber Barrel For Reboring

    I have a Cabelas 50 caliber barrel I bought off of EBay to have rebored to 54 caliber by Bobby Hoyt. I guess after a year or more I will never get it done. This barrel looks like it came from a kit gun someone tried to cold blue. Then shot it and didn't clean the bore. I believe the bore would...

    The .50 Caliber Rifle

    I found this video last night and was reminded of the power of a muzzle loading gun. This is the same guy that made the Gemmer Hawken build video series. Here he test 4 different projectiles from round ball to conicals. The old round ball gives a good accounting of its self which is probably no...

    Vent Hole Liner

    I bought a Pedersoli Kentucky rifle and was doing a cleaning on it. The barrel is in perfect shape as far as the bore goes but I cannot remove the vent hole liner. Any tips on removing these? I had it soaking all night with WD-40 hoping that would loosen it but it didn't work. Also I had read...

    Where To Buy Flints?

    I should have my new flint rifle in a couple of weeks and wanted to ask where is everyone getting their flints from? I know about TOW but wondered if there was maybe someplace better. (cheaper)

    Clay Smith Guns?

    I was surfing around the other night and came across this guy. He has some unique stuff and some very high dollar dueling pistol sets in the $40,000 range. He has some painted guns that must have been based on historical arms but in all my years of reading about BP rifles I have never seen or...

    Pedersoli Scout Carbine

    Finally made it out to shoot my new to me Pedersoli .50 caliber Scout rifle. I used 50grs of 3F Goex powder, a .012 patch lubed with water soluble oil and a .490 ball. Range was 45 yards. I shot a little to the right but moved the rear sight a touch when I got home. I had 5 in a sorta good group...

    Hello From Burleson Tx

I have owned BP rifles since the early 1990s all cap locks. I did just buy a Lyman Trade Rifle in 50 caliber and in flintlock...
