What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

[Rocket]

Pics of your stuck nipple removal tool?

Thanks.

 

[Rocket]

The first is a pos cva nipple prick, because the wrench is worthless, the 2nd pic is a 5mm deep Craftsman deep 1/4" drive cut to fit the over tightened rusted in nipples on both my pistol and rifle.
I do what I can from home!

Anybody who makes their own one-off tools to do a special job gets my seal of approval.

I tell ya, I don't want to mess things up, but at the same time, I want to get things done. Im a pipe liner in the oilfield, and a heavy equipment operator, with machinest background.
And I ride Harleys, and do mine own maintenance, so I fix it

Went to the hardware store and picked up some components to make a barrel flushing attachment for a CVA Kentucky. I know many clean without these but many years of cleaning hooked breech rifles in a bucket have trained me.

So here's the stuff. I'll report back on results!!

Ooh, it looks cold are you in a river bottom?

 

[Omahkapi'si]

Nope. Just one of the few level areas.

We are making fajitia's for supper so I picked up some extra beef and put it in the marinade, then into the dehydrator for jerky. Trail food to go with my parched corn.

Shot Skeet today with a 1863 Westley Richards 16b and a 16b flint lock SxS. I did hit a couple with the flintlock, no wonder that clergyman invented the percussion system.
