Asherdan has it right. Shop around before you hit the order button. I've bought alot from Midway over the years but lately the stuff marked "On Sale" seemed to be the regular price. Buyer beware.
Seiko, I'm in the other boat. I've got a 550B that I've had and a XL650 that I haven't set up all the way yet. 300 rds an hour is all I'll do with my 550 because I stop occasionally to check my OAL and powder weights. I use TiteGroup so I don't want any double charges. BOTH of my presses I could...
I grew up in Rochester,NH about four miles from the T/C factory . I've got a .54 New Englander that I absolutely feel I can depend on. From what I've heard S+W buying them out will only improve things. I've never heard anything negative about the customer service at T/C. I've only heard how...
One of the members of the forum putting on the group buy posted a couple links regarding history of some of these muskets. India DID indeed make some of them way back when they were new. One of the posters in the thread wouldn't order one when he found out they were made in India because he was...
http://www.middlesexvillagetrading.com/ Here's the place they are ordering from. Northeastshooters.com is the forum the group buy is originated from. I'd send you a link to the "group buy" but you have to be a member to read that section of the forum. I've heard nothing but good things about the...
Anyone here see those replica BP flintlocks and percussion rifles made in India ?? I guess alot of reenactors use them. Another forum I'm on is doing a group buy and I was just wondering about the quality. Thanks.
Yes you can do it. Just make sure you get the correct size musket nipple that fits your brand muzzleloader. The threads are different on some of them. I bought mine [2 of them] one time when I was placing a order with MidwayUSA for reloading supplies. I just told the guy what brand my smokepole...
Nice purchase !! You did VERY well considering you got all those accessories. One thing I would consider doing is switching your #11 nipple to a musket one. It'll cost you under $10 and you'll get a lot hotter spark when you pull the trigger.
Check out the Fox Ridge Outfitters website and get their toll free number. Last time I was in the shop they had a few of them including the .58 Hawkens. I've got a .54 New Englander. What model are you looking for? I should be driving by the store this weekend and I'll check for you if you want.
Thanks Red Dog. I like the LED lights because they cost so little to operate and I just want something to light up the inside of my case so I can see the powder charge.
I only reload .40 and .45 and I use TiteGroup for both of them. It takes a while to empty the powder hoppers on my Dillons so 8 lb jugs work well with me. My bench is in the cellar and I store the powder upstairs out of harms way. Whenever I start a reloading session I check my powder level and...
I'm having this problem as well. I've only got 2" or so between the ceiling and the top of my casefeeder. I'm going to cut my post down a couple inches so I'll have room to put brass into the hopper. I've been told this'll do the trick.:D
Red Dog, is the magnet strong enough to stay in place and how expensive was it if you don't mind me asking ?? Looks like something I could use. Thanks.
I was going to try out the suggestions everyone gave me today when I went shooting. Unfortunately I got called into work but will give it another shot in a few weeks next time I go out.
