    Caywood Guns Contact Help

    Hi folks. I'm at a loss as to what I should do, so I thought I would ask here as a start point. I sent my Pedersoli Brown Bess barrel to Danny Caywood to be jug choked back in August of this year. He sent the barrel back to me but it never arrived. I notified Danny I had not received the...

    12 Gauge questions

    Hello folks! I’m thinking about buying a Pedersoli 12 gauge caplock shotgun. I’m curious as to what size shot cards and wads I should buy? Looking at reviews/comments on Midway, it appears that some folks recommend 14 gauge shot cards. I have a brown bess and am somewhat familiar with...

    new gun for me: Uberti 1851 Navy!

    First things first, I need to make and post some photos of the revolver! I picked up a Cimarron imported Uberti 1851 Navy today. It is in .36 caliber. The finish of the revolver looks great. The fit of the wood grips is not so great (wood is proud of the frame in several places). The action...

    Caplock squirrels

    Howdy folks! Sharing some squirrels I shot yesterday with my Pedersoli Frontier in .36 caliber. It was a wonderful hunt with plenty of opportunity! I definitely need to work on the front site (file it down to make it thinner or simply replace the front site with a thinner one). I think I’ll...

    Brown Bess Squirrels

    I was able to get into the woods this evening after work and before a storm came through eastern Kansas. I was lucky enough to connect with three squirrels before I ran out of daylight. My load this time was 80 grains of Swiss 1.5F, fiber shot card, 1 3/4 OZ #6, and over shot card…..I had...

    Brown Bess Squirrel Hunt After Action Review

    Hi good folks. I've recently been squirrel hunting with my Pedersoli Brown Bess. My hunting load consisted of 80 grains of Swiss 1.5 F black powder and 1 3/4 OZ #6 shot resulting in the following pattern at 30 yards (photo one with the tape measure). For me that is an adequate pattern for...

    Brown Bess

    Hi Folks! I'm relatively new to the forum. I've dabbled in black powder fire arms off an on for a few decades, but still consider myself a novice. A few months ago I picked up a Pedersoli reproduction of a Brown Bess. I also bought a myriad of round balls, powder, and other kit needed to...
