Never mind.....it sold yesterday afternoon....knew I should have... ...bought it when I saw it. Randy

Local pawn shop has a nice used 1858 Remington bright finish.....want it? They only want about $200 for it. I'll be glad to pick it up for you if you'd like. It's used, has some marks near the nipple area where the hammer has come down several times.....so it has been shot some. I've...

The sub-$200 Hi-point pistols.....been poring through the youtube videos. Funny how some of the guys who initially hated them have come around to like them for what they are.....useful, "social distance" powerhouses that double real well as a hammer once the ammo is gone! (Like that phrase...

Jack.....I do ..... most of the time! I confess that I once had a sow rise up in high grass (sort of like a submarine surfacing), and I began looking for a tree! She headed off at an angle, and I took one of her piglets with a 9mm air pistol. Wouldn't dream of trying her at 250+ lbs...

I've noticed the muzzleloading barrel that Mossberg makes for their Model 500.....was wondering if Remington ever did the same thing for the 870 Express? I understand that there were some small issues with powder being blown back into the hammer area on the Model 500.....but I still kind of...

Was hunting in South Africa using air rifles.....friend took a kudu ....that is an elk-sized animal with a .457 air rifle shooting a 510 grain slug of lead. Way less power than your .270, but the kudu still fell over dead. I really like the .270, and consider it one of the best...

I've killed a couple with bigbore air guns.....a .50 caliber shooting roundball to the temple, and a smaller juvenile with a 9mm bigbore air pistol. These air guns are custom made, though there are some factory-made airguns that fall in the same category now. Crosman has the Rogue, a .357 air...

H&A Underhammer in .40 caliber

Thanks Rattus.....good point .....about building up. Went to the local fabric store today looking for pillow ticking to use.....they didn't have any remnants, but a sewing friend of my wife's has a large piece that might work. I'll have to look at the material when she brings it by later...

Another question.....would you try grinding 2F into finer powder yourself...? .....or is it too much trouble to mess with? I spoke to a few folks at the local gun shop, and they have done it, but it seems to be a pain in the butt for most folks.... ....was wondering about safety issues...

From what you are saying....I need a slightly larger lead ball.... .....to reduce the size of the patch....yes? If .395 just rolls in, does that mean this is closer to a .41 caliber? I could try .40 roundball in it. Randy

Here are some pics of the underhammer .40 caliber muzzleloader....

Shot the underhammer in .40 caliber today...... I didn't have any powder on hand except for American Pioneer FFg....would have preferred FFFg......using a patched .395 ball. With one patch .010 in width, the ball still loaded ridiculously easy. So I spread lube between two patches for a .020...

Hello All, New here, coming back to blackpowder interests after a decade's break.....been hunting with airguns for the last 10 years.....everything from mice in the barn to African plains game....but that's another story. I recently picked up a nice H&A underhammer rifle in .40 caliber, with...
