1 -As I slowly progress towards the traditional side .... I picked up a traditions deerhunter kit in 54 ( call it a practice build ) I'll be using lee real 54 conicals - any of you gentlemen have any load suggestions for me ? As a lefty (right hand disabled) I'm hoping this will work out - before I invest in more traditional kits I want to try this out .... no load data out there that I can find - got plenty of pyrdoex select
2- My beloved traditions 1851 navy has a problem - the screw holding the barrel wedge won't screw all the way in - anybody know if these are metric or standard ??? I want to pick up a tap set and remedy this issue - don't want to send her back because I've got one with a great smooth action and absolutely perfect trigger !! My buddy watched me hit again and again within 6-12 inches from a paper cup set at 110 yards so I'm letting any factory get there hands on this girl !!!
3- How hard can I step on my 1847 Uberti walker ?? I am perplexed the factory says no more than 40 grain loads but I've read of up to 60 being used.
Thanks to this website I am a confirmed cap and ball fiend now - they are a great way to spend an afternoon.
