    Pure Soft Lead for Hand Casting

    I saw a guy doing a video with a classic looking mold over a camp fire to cast a couple balls, he had a pouch of lead showing how someone might cast a couple balls back in the day. I found it interesting and would like to add something similar to my collection. I'm not trying to go full out...

    Pure Soft Lead for Hand Casting

    I didn't say anything about going hunting with this. I was simply asking where you guys buy your lead from. Don't give yourself a headache over trying to figure out what I'm doing.

    I'm going to buy the tool. It's on my list of items to get. It seems like a must have if you own a percussion cap revolver or rifle. I am very interested in what other options exist out there. As of now other than the tool from 22reloader all I've seen are two other ways and those are the...

    Revolver percussion caps

    You're welcome. I did not write that pdf but found it on the internet. If you know the person who did or if they're on this forum maybe give them a shout out. It looks like it took some time to put that together. Looks from awhile ago and I found it on a public gun discussion site. I'm new...

    WANTED #11 Magnum Percussion Caps

    10-4, thank you for the info. I've noticed the big name stores online inventory info can be inaccurate sometimes for example when I was looking for my 1851 I checked Cabela's websites and one of their stores somewhat close had a 1851 listed in stock so I called but they actually had the 1858...
