Reloading Fingers thanx for the link to the load calculator. Higene

22 c&b Seeing is believing. I like em. Has anyone ever tried to reload (pull the bullet and replace the powder) 22s with bp? (Another solution to a problem that doesn't exist.) :rolleyes:

The one that shoots best in your gun 90 gr Goex ff works well in my GPR flintlock. :scrutiny:

Yo - One of them there Italian Companies. :banghead:

51 Navy Thanks all for the input. I shot it today. Good grouping but high and wide. I ordered some Tesoro nipples as Mykel always advises. when I get 'er tuned up I will post some Pix. :cool:

The gun has soul. You can feel it when you hold it and shoot it. :) :) :) http://historicaltrekking.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=10072

51 Navy It has an AI in a box, small crossed swords (possibly an 'X' in a box) with an 'O' over the box - on the frame and the same mark on the barrel, and a PN with an asterik over it. The reason that I think that it is silver is that there are places where it is tarnished and it cleans up...

I have found a 51 Navy. It appears to have a silver plated frame (I'd guess nickle but the ones I've seen are different). Does anyone know anything about these guns? Your help is appreciated. :scrutiny: Higene

Shooting Balls For the Forth of July I decided to try shooting some round balls. I ran across a thread that really broke it down and I tried it - I am amazed. I had a great Fourth! http://home.insightbb.com/~bspen/SmoothboreLoads.html The two low shots were the first two shots. The next four...

Loads Happy trails! Thank you Articap et al ! I tried a 1 oz shot measure of powder an over powder card, shot cup, 1 1/4 oz of shot, and an over shot card. This combination patterned much better at 50' and 25 yards. More learning to do but I feel I am on the right path. :)

JBrown Fowler Jackie Brown is an interesting person. He has been making Flintlocks for years - Way before the current resurgance of BP repros. He has always made basic guns at reasonable prices. From the ones I have seen they are mostly long barreled flintlocks with beautiful stocks. One...

Fowler It is a 20 gauge. I have been looking for a hunting BP shotgun for some time and think that I have finally found it. The only markings on the gun when I got it were " J. Brown" on the right side and "ETH" on the left side. I suspect that it is a Jackie Brown gun. I plan to contact him...

I can quit this any time I want- Really! I didn't buy this gun I just traded a shiny gun for a rusty one?? I call this a modern colonial with a Kentucky accent. What say you? I got this rusty old thing checked out and it goes off real well. I'm having a little trouble patterning it. I...

Duplex loads I use 3f in the main charge mostly (4f in the pan). Sometimes when I want to use substitutes, I load 10 grains of Real BP and then a charge of a substitute. It has worked well for me. This is really a take off of what is described above. I have also found substitutes far more...

54 Smoothbore Jaymo, Who would you get to do the reaming and how much would it cost? :scrutiny:
