    RB Mold Question…

    Thanks for the response! I just spray my molds with Rem Oil and keep them in a ziplock bag… Then use brake cleaner to remove the Oil prior to casting. I’ve never seen it done this way, but it is in great condition, so it sure worked well.

    Great report! Time on the range with a favorite rifle is among the best therapies. Keep us updated with your findings. (And we never get tired of rifle pics!)

    Would you mind sharing your .40 loads? I’m just getting things together to begin working with my first .40 cal rifle. Very excited about this one so any suggestions would be appreciated. I’ll be working with PRB’s for coyote sized critters and smaller.

    Classic muzzleloader photos.

    Awesome pic!! Can you take an educated guess as to when this photo was taken (by his age perhaps). This is very interesting to see that caplock rifle in use alongside a cartridge rifle. Thanks for sharing!
