    Patent Breech Investarms Hawken failures to fire

    Every time! And if I used bore butter it was worse! Old # 13, or spit patching works best for me to eliminate fouling that channel.

    Patent Breech Investarms Hawken failures to fire

    Just put a little FFFG in the barrel followed by the regular 777 charge. Thats should ignite it. If not, try a musket nipple and cap. They never fail to ignite.

    Gardening ..again

    It's always a toss up. Being too early or too late can just be a matter of a few days, sometimes!

    Gardening ..again

    When I was a kid in Germany, it was pretty rural. They used to have these trucks come around that we called the honey wagon. Basically it was manure with water in it they used it all the time for their crops.

    Aren’t you worried that another freeze will hit? I’m in TN. We also have another freeze right around Easter.

    Value of NIB Zoli Harper's Ferry 58.?

    Value:$100. But I’ll double that to $200 as I’m a sucker for charity cases. Jk

    New Uberti 1861 Navy from Midway. Buyer Beware!

    It looks like grease, or anti-seize to me.

    A little too early to plant in Memphis. I wait until after Easter due to the always late freeze.

    Round ball and blood trails

    This has been my experience, as well.

    Spin Jag Loader

    I have one. It does not really serve any purpose. in fact, if you want to use a bore scraper it won't do that properly as it does not rotate with the rod...

    1850s German Jaeger .54 cal

    TC Tang Sight

    That is correct. Lots of sights will fit that. Williams and Lyman both are available for it. I use a Williams and I love it.
