    turkey loads

    That's a good point about the law Turkey shot. I think it's illegal to use Buckshot of any size here in NC. Never heard of going to small exception is rifles of any caliber. That's a brain teaser....well for me anyway :haha:

    .45cal Late Lancaster on the way.....(sort of)

    Hey Roundball, While looking over the spec's of your newly ordered gun.......I simply realize that I have no idea ..."What are round bottom grooves" ? I could perhaps make a joke out of this observation....but the joke would be on me. What gives with the grooves is that inside the barrel ...

    Rifle TC should have made?

    How do they function ? Meaning how's the spark and balance.....I like what you've done....especally the flinter. I might have scratched the shinny metal and used black iron. Eliminated the patchbox altogether....then it'd be my version :rotf:

    GPR vs. Pedersoli Frontier

    The GPR rifles are good reliable shooters that can be fixed relatively easy....It's a strong gun....with good balance. No doubt it's a good value and maybe the best shooter available....IMO I've always wanted one....but settled for the TC. All said, if you ain't happy 'ier..try a TC. You can't...

    I've been using olive oil....just a tiny bit off a old T-Shirt to lube and wipe guns down. I've learned that petro oils will seep into wood and weaken it over time but I use it sparingly on metal to metal but not around powder or where powder goes. I us TC 1000 "Duck Butter" on barrel and the...
