I have found that the patched Round Ball or loose fitting ball, just makes more sense. Any small variance in ball diameter, alloy composition, or a little powder fouling, will make loading a total nightmare!! With a patch, you can shoot about anything...22 call airgun pellets work well too...

Actually it is part real Black Powder... It is a factory duplex powder made from KIK brand black powder. The smokeless helps to give a more complete burn of the BP so fouling less of an issue.

Nice squirrel hunting!! So please tell us more about your load. What did you do for wading/cards etc.? It is amazing how well a guy can tailor his loads with the little 72cal. It sure is fun to shoot!! lol By wrapping electric tape around the petals of a Winchester AA shot cup, I was able to...

Nicely done!! That big round ball sure cratered the wet-pack!! The 45acp comparison was a nice touch.

It's funny how you laugh every time she goes off...lol

I have a new Diablo in hand!!! It came nicely boxed and packaged. And wrapped in a nice cloth bag. This little devil makes you giggle when you hold it!..LOL If you like making blackpowder smoke as much as me... you will probably need one of these. No shooting review yet...This is an early...

Mike, if you find a better platform...please post a link because I will sure follow you wherever you choose to share your great videos. There are so many happy guns owners in America,..and the world. If we "all" shifted venues, google would surely raise it's eyebrow's!!

Yeah that's good!...you are getting visible sparks out the muzzle even with full lighting!

I think it was aqua-net(?)...but it was 2015 last time I made them. I used tweezers to place the cap shells into an empty primer tray. Then I made a little powder dipper, by soldering a wire handle onto the base of a spent "Small" pistol primer. Filled a Visine bottle with acetone (label...

Thank you for the great post on cap making! I sealed the Caps I made from the 22 reloader kit with a generous dose of hair spray. And yesterday I tried some caps I made years ago and they all fired well... The hairspray seems to waterproof them cuz I threw them in the water to try it...didn't...

You have a short Arbor on your Walker.. You just need to shim the arbor. Do it now before it's too late... Do a search about Arbor length fix and you'll find lots of good ideas to deal with the situation

This thread got me curious so I just tried 40g of 2f OE black powder behind the little 155 EPPUG, out of the 5 1/2" Rem58, 45colt conversion over the Chrono...1205fps!!!! This bullet is basically a RoundBall with a lube groove. I just pan lube it with SPG. Accuracy of this high powered load is...

I would not refer to any of this thread info as "Gallery" (!) I shoot a 5 1/2" 45colt, 1858 Conversion, loaded with 16gr 2ffg Olde Eynsford and a 38 special case of filler Cream-o-Wheat behind a 153gr EPP-UG bullet lubed with SPG. This load gives me 765fps, and is by NO means a "gallery"...

Before you load your pocket Remington... Operate the loading lever to it's full cycle and pay close attention to how far it travels! (or doesn't travel) You will see that at it's full range of motion the lever will not press a ball in much past the cylinder face. Since the little guys are so...

I am not aware of a single one in anyone's hands yet. I had lots of questions, concerns, and suspicions myself Drobs...I called them and felt a lot better about the company's legitimacy by the time the phone call ended. Sure hope it all works out, because they look nice in the pictures. And if...

Cut/pasted this from the website ...Single hammer, single trigger and utilizes a selector on the hammer to select one barrel or the other... The rotating firing pins on a Derringer are a pain in the butt..so an external, manual hammer switch will be handy. You could load a Round Ball for the...

There has been a few threads started around the net about the new Diablo howdah pistols. I think they look great. I can't wait to get my hands on mine! These are Black Powder Muzzleloaders and completely legal. https://americanguncraft.com/products/ I have a Pedersoli howdah 20 gauge, but it...

Neatsfoot compound contains a high percentage of straight 30W Motor oil...

Grain is a measurement of weight! It is not and has NEVER been a volume unit. It is 1/7000th of a lb.... They would just dig out the charge and weight it!!! ...have you by the #uts wouldn't they??:D:banghead: But that being said...just make up a litter horn measure that holds the charge that...
