thanks for posting the about the felt, been looking through my credit card slips to see who it was. Plus it is 1/8 not 1/4" what I got too, got to stop sniffing the powder before i shoot.
why yes that is the one, will post photo
Made about 200 .380 round balls today, my wife thinks I am nuts
The tallow and beeswax works great for fouling.
Only issue the barrel has to be tapped to seat on the pins.
If anyone knows if this could be an issue please let me know
i want to be careful in my reply:)
use, if I remembered right, 1/4" felt( bought about 2 yds, grandkids will be punching out wads long after I am gone). Then I soak them in a beeswax, tallow mixture, and they work great. Before I made any for the navy I punch some and used bore butter and the...
Been watching Cabelas for a sale on the "yank" navy and there it was so "Happy Father's Day" to me.
What a good time shooting it, bought 50 lbs of lead today on Craigslist and a mold coming from amazon. Made wads last night and load of balls to play with.
Just wish I caught the sale in April...
Well tried the new spring approach and same results as the oem spring but it does feels stiffer. Still the balls to shoot, after i send my walker to Mike this one might be next. Debating on installing a cap post, just want to be sure that procedure would fix the issue before i change anything on it
Have the same issues with my brand 1849 wells fargo
oem nipples
3f @ 10 gr
00 buck (all available at time)
#10 and #11 same results
compared to my other colt, spring does feel soft until it is cocked
considering installing the pin to prevent cap drop
BUT
it is still the cat ass to...
My son bought me a 1849 "Wells Fargo" for Christmas and it is a hoot to fire. By the way I want to thank you all for this addiction, a walker, 1860, new army and now this one since July.
But back to my point, I have decided to start carrying it for my every day carry because it is such a nice...
thanks Mike for the info, i have a walker that is my favorite and i want to send your way. I will contact you for when is it a good time for you to work on it
Probably should start a new thread but i will ask here. I got a gift card for a shop here that carrys the wells fargo instead of the...
The wedge does not seat square in the barrel and is not flush on the frame locking pins.
When I check the depth of the base pin into the barrel it seems a couple thousands to long which would cause the wedge to not seat square
Question do I fine tune it or return to cabelas for an exchange...
the wife is really being unreasonable about this, have to wait till the 25th fortunately I have a nice Walker and a new army to satisfy the need to make smoke. She still trying to figure out why I need more than one, i said "you have more than one pair of shoes" but that logic did not get me to far
finally sighted in the walker, it is so much fun to shoot that it took me a couple hundred rounds. I would start working off my bench at 50 yds with my "sightin target" then the sound of lead hitting different targets, penetration in old water tanks etc would become the game. So today even with...
