    Used to order from DGW at least a couple of times a year! Overseas order! I have accumulated most of what I need! No new project in the horizons, just to shoot and have fun with what I`ve got. I will recommend TOTW. Outstanding customer service..!

    Coning

    I did the coning of my custom .47 Early Virginia flintlock rifle. had to go to my friends place and spend the evening there in order to do the coning. I have to shoot the rifle again to check the accuracy after coning..!

    Patch lube, spit or lube?

    That is four sane and well thought of reasons, I would probably give it a go anyways. #1 Use spit patch because it wipes the bore with every load, and doesn't push any crud close enough to the breech to cause misfires. #2 Spit patch holds several NMLRA national records. Good enough for them...

    Patch lube for round ball shooting..........Lawdy.

    Been looking for the Lehigh valley lube. It is the formula I have had the best results with, even got some brag`n rights back in 2004 at Friendship using that stuff. I knew that Shenendoah is a good copy. But as I am in Norway it is to much of a hassle to to get some of that stuff over the big...

    Moose milk is hard to get, you know you have to milk the moose cow to obtain some..! Actually water soluble oil or just plain old Balistol 1:7 is good! I am in the process of going back to spit again, for my flintlock rifle..! It just is plain simple, cheap and it works..! It is a lot of...

    Coning

    My friend have all the available calibers of Joe Wood coning tools and he is a firm believer in coning the muzzle! It does make for an easier reload! I will ask to borrow his custom .47 tool in order to cone my muzzle even a little more. It is coned but it seems not to have been made deep enough!

    Patch lube, spit or lube?

    I know that this is an old topic and I have used all kinds of lube for my patches and in my simple head the thickness of the patch is more impotent than the lube is, in order to obtain accuracy. I just posted a video on my YouTube channel on home made patch lube and yes it works...! But why are...
