Those are quite a pair of bucks. Congratulations and good cartridges to boot. Dan.

Not this year. Hopefully next maybe.

My departed friend Don had a No1 6mmRem years ago.

The stock was advertised as a 95 % inlet but there was quite a bit of finish in letting to do on the barrel channel and other parts. Swamped barrels carry and balance well. That's why it was really a parts set not a kit so much. When I put the touch hole in, I had to set the barrel back because...

15 years ago, I could put them in one hole at 50 yards touch at 75 yards. Now I'm good with minute of deer, waiting to see if they will remove my cataracts.

Here is my 54 cal Issac Hains I built 15 years ago from a Track of the Wolf parts set. It has; Rice C wt 38 in swamped barrel with raidus groove rifling Siler deluxe large lock Metal browned with Walkon Bay solution Stain is Laural Mt Forge Lancaster Maple 2 coats and Birchwood Casey Walnut 3...

The beauty of 3F is that it can be used in calibers over 45 and it doesn't take as much as 2F. I use it my 50 and 54.

Sorry to hear about your uncle. It is clearly obvious why this flintlock was his prized possession. Like the color. Since you are familiar with cap locks then the loading procedure is the same with the exception of putting powder in the pan. Don't over fill it. With flintlocks stay with black...

Good story of your hunt and good of you to help out your buddy. At least you got to put the load to use on a whitetail which is never a bad thing. Merry Christmas.

Haven't tried the X die but something I've always wondered about if it was able to do what they advertise. Started reloading with RCBS dies and still use some. Redding gets the nod when purchasing new ones. I have used Hornady dies and had an issue with a set in 243 Win but they corrected it and...

Looks like you found the load it likes.

Everyone's mounts look really nice.

Congratulations again and well done.

I boiled it in a blue enamel pot using Biz detergent additive. Have used the powder in the past but none was available so used the liquid. Cup to cup and a half, changed the water twice, put new Biz each time. I used a Coleman camping propane stove. Took 3 bottles. The enzymes in the Biz break...

Thank you. I enjoyed doing it.

Made a European mount out the 10pt I got during our buck season.

Have you tried or have access to Big Game? It groups well under an inch close to half inch in my Remington 700 with 22-inch barrel getting close to 2900 fps using the Hornady 165gr BTSP.

It is possible that you just haven't found what it likes so far. May not like this bullet you're loading. Might try different powder. Just a suggestion but when trying, switching components switch one at a time. Stay with same bullet just try different powders. Then different bullet with...

Welcome. As you have found out there are lots of folks here who are glad to help. Good advice has already been given so I'll throw in my limited experience loading for the BAR. Loaded for a friend's Bar using Sierra 180gr Game Kings with H4895, RP case and Winchester LR primer. He hunts in an...

Don I am so sorry for this tragic news. Tough call to have to make. Prayers for your family as they go through this difficult time.
