Can I ship a cap-n-ball revolver directly to a person, or must it go to an FFL? I know some states have restrictions. Thanks in advance --Dawg

I've had a powder inc cylinder loader for many many years, and use it about 3 weekends a month. I bought a second one as a back-up, but have never needed it -- The powder inc models are very well made. Many people don't know that Dick only started his tower of power production when Powder inc...

Either shoot it or sell it. ASM revolvers have a spotty reputation, due to poor quality control. I've shot many over the years, and most have either been very good or very bad. Anyway, they went out of business years ago, and you'll have a hard time if you ever need parts. If you plan on...

Ebay There are some sellers who part out ROAs If none are listed, I would contact one of those sellers and ask if they have one. **************** I would contact David Clements at Clements Custom Guns http://www.clementscustomguns.com/ *************** Numrich...

I have two Powder Inc Cylinder loaders. When I purchased them years ago, they came with a jag for loading .31 pocket pistols. They advertised it as able to load 44, 36, & 31. --Dawg

When Ruger still made the Old Army, you could buy extra cylinders from them, but you had to send in your gun, so the cylinder could be fitted. It was a bit costly, but .......... Now, David Clements has one on occasion, Ebay has them now and then, and forums, like the Ruger forum has them from...

The general rule is .451 for Piettas, .454 for Ubertis, & .457 with ROAs. --Dawg

Lots of modern shotguns don't do well with traditional felt or fiber wads, because of the way the barrels are bored. Plastic wads do better. Your load with the previously mentioned CB1138-12 will hammer the KDs. I see it every week. --Dawg

Thinking back on Elephant black powder. It always shot well for me. They've been out of business for a while. Anybody know a source of cans? Looking for one empty from them to fill out a "memory wall" Thought I'd as a group of BP shooters. If yer anything like me, you have lots of empties...

Here is the T/C Cherokee (24") and Seneca (27") data These barrels are 13/16", so this data should work for your gun. --Dawg

Yes, they have been around for a long while, and the Possibles shop has been in business for a long time too. They'll take good care of you. Be sure you order the Pietta versions: 11-50-106 --Dawg

Italian nipples are crap. Replace them with Slix Shot nipples, available from Longhunter supply or Desperado Cowboy bullets Or with Treso nipples -- I buy mine from the Possible Shop Then use Remington #10 caps, and all your cap/nipple problems will go away. I've not used them, but I've heard...

My Uberti will load & shoot .428 & .429 soft cast bullets very accurately. Uberti claims the barrel is .429, which means a .430 soft cast should be a good bullet, but with some brass, .430 bullets will not chamber, cuz the brass is too thick. So, I usually order .429, but have used .428 before...

Harley: Why is the stand alone base pin needed? It's not needed. 3 of my ROAs have Belt Mountain stand alone pins. My two Buntline ROAs use the standard loading lever/pin And they all work great. So do the smaller 451/452 bullets work ok? I use .452 bullets when I shoot cartridges and they...

Go to a cowboy shoot. Get together with a few other shooters and get a case from Graf's, Powder inc, Maine powder house, or any of the other distributors. --Dawg

I have 5 Howell conversion cylinders for my 5 "shoot alot" ROAS. 3 are stainless and 2 are blued. I bring them if rain looks likely. If it is not raining, I will shoot the percussion cylinders, if it's raining, I'll change 'em out to the cartridge cylinders. Everyone has dropped right in & works...
