Mike I think you should keep posting links for your videos. When I was just starting out in black powder I found one of your links on this forum. It was very helpful in me deciding to start shooting C and B revolvers. So keep posting links for the new guys out there. Got to say I love all...

So I was thinking about putting shot in a revolver and wondered if you could cap the shot with a lead ball. So pour in your powder followed by the shot then topped of with a round ball. Kinda like the Winchester PDX1 410 shells for the Judge. Or do you think there might be to much pressure...

Sorry I meant to say it's not shot out, and it's shooting almost right at POA just a little high. The hammer can't be ground anymore so the front sight would have to be raised. Hellgate what part of Oregon do you live in? I'm between Eugene and Albany we could meet up if you want

I have some questions that maybe some of you might know the answers to. 1. I was wondering if anyone has switched frames on a 1851 or 1860 colt replica? So taken all the internals out of one gun and reinstall them on a separate frame. I'm thinking that the timing will be thrown off if one was...

Thanks for all the kind comments to answer some questions it's a 44 caliber and from what I gather you can shoot 22 grains of powder as a safe load. I did notch the hammer a little to help with it shooting high, still have to test it. The finish is Minwax red oak (because the Pietta walnut was...

I have been snooping around here for a while and really was just trying to learn everything I could. I decided to try this black powder thing and I went out and bought a 1851 brass framed Pietta. After I shot it I knew I wasn't going back to smokeless. I immediately wished I'd bought a steel...
