So after all these years I finally decided to venture into the world of black powder.
I bought the Uberti 1860 Revolver. Now I have questions
1) If the round balls fit tight and leaves a nice ring behind and I use the lubricated wad between the powder and the ball is it really necessary to use something like Bore Butter?
2) Who are the best vendors to buy supplies from? I have a Cabela's nearby but their prices really suck.
3) I think this revolver out of the box uses #10 caps and I see where a lot of guys use the #11. Why are some guys using larger caps?
I'm sure I'll have more questions coming.
