I have watched the Chambers flintlock building video where a Lancaster rifle w/wooden sliding patch box is put together by James Turpin. The video is good and answers a lot of questions.
For those of you with flintlock rifles that have wooden and brass patch boxes, which ones hold up the best and the longest. It seems that most of the posts on this forum lean towards brass patch boxes. I just wanted to make sure that if I ever decided to build a rifle with a wooden sliding patch box - I wouldn't live to regret that choice.
