now that i have assembled the components to start shooting my new ROA, i have a question concerning misfires. i have read the remington caps are unreliable and unfortunately i bought remington caps before researching.
what is protocol for a misfire with cap and ball? I am wondering if the powder's ignition could be delayed enough that it would ignite after i have rotated the cylinder to fire the next cylinder. i have read the owners manual.
also i was wondering if i could make my own felt wads from an old cowboy hat. if so what grease would work to soak the felt. I have a good supply of bacon grease.
