No idea who he is. But RIP

Interesting video, thanks. But like a lot of things flintlock it makes me wonder how this problem was dealt with back in the olden days when your life might have depended on reliable ignition? Back before JB Weld and wax paper. I would assume those men faced the same problem you did so any conjecture on what they did?

I am sorry about your loss But Have you and your Family have a Wonderful Thanksgiving Day !!!

RIP!

Sir log cabin lodi ohio pi spencer rear site. Check it out, awesome shooting

wow, sorry to hear this

RIP

🙏🙏🙏😢 !!!

In the flint lock it should be every bit as consistent as the percussion, one thing that will help is using dry patches or putting a dry patch in between the greased patch and the powder most of the fouling on ur patches is from powder dampened by ur lube

Cheer~~~typemetal 😊

Why is moisture content important if you will bring it down to near zero by charring it?

Great vid. Thanks for posting

Triple 7 enough to make me puke I'll use my home made great video 👍

it will never be the last😂

Good video. I guess Swiss/etal, could make better powder, but it would cost quite a bit more??

LOL "I long for global warming".

Always enjoy your videos.

I built my CVA Kentucky Rifle 50 cal w/ 33” barrel back in 1987 from a kit. Shoots great and very accurate. I did change the rear sight to one with w& e screws. I’ve always used Pyrodex powder with no issues. Bought it from Service Merchandise for less than $100 . Just got some 50 cal HP Sabots to try.

Or shorter in height nipples?

How about changing the nipples to Slix or something?

A tiny drop of hairspray is all you need

Seems like an awful lot of work when you can just as easily move to 3f in pan

Great video man 👍

The human eye can only focus on one object at a time, that's what I was taught in the USMC 60 years ago at the rifle range it's still true today.

I hate snow. Somewhat fun for a few days if it's new to you, but living in it can really suck. I had moved from sunny California to Tennessee when I was 10 and quickly learned how hard it was to stay warm and all the extra work required. Fortunately after 1 year, my family realized we preferred the warmth of CA. Kim is a good sport to join you in clearing it up.

Always good to see you Mike. At our age, if you don't hear things popping at your joints for no good reason, you're doing really good.

When I shoot, I don't use lollipop method for aiming. I set my sights for point of impact. So where I aiming is where my shots go. The lollipop method has to much variance in aiming. My eyes are getting bad like yours. I am going to invest in new glasses with bi-focals. It sucks getting older.

Deer all day with what you have now. Great video.

Stay warm. We didn't get much here in clovis

Wowza 😅

Nice adjusting.

Fair enough 😂 we'll see what it looks like Saturday

Holy Moly Michael! Here in Pa. we just had 3 days of 70 some degrees, which is unusual. It’s very dry here and we really need some rain. Meanwhile, back on the Lame Beaver Ranch, you’re having a mess of snow! Sure looks pretty and I can taste that snowy day coffee too! Thanks for sharing all that beauty! And May I suggest some more dog people and a sled so you don’t miss any events, eh? But snowed in with a fresh pot of JO sounds pretty good! Many Blessings! DaveyJO ☕️in Pennsylvania

Man, you guys can have that cold weather; i live in a semi tropical state of Australia called Queensland, that weather would kill me. By the way, GO TRUMP, boy have some people here got their panties in a knot because he won. Suck it up i say, interesting times ahead. My family have been poisoned by JW cult so i watch you guys with interest. Say good day to Kimmy & stay warm.

Need frozen foot there.

Apt name.

I'll trade ya bud, I'm here in central PA trying to bow hunt the rut in a 85 degree heat wave.

I figured out staying put is where its at. Not crazy about vehicles in the ditch or in the ravine. Most folks think they have to go somewhere when it snows here in western NC.

Wow ouch. Yes Sir I'd say so.

Ya can't wait for the crap 6 months of winter good video 👍

I love the snow,we haven’t been getting the snow these last few years. I live up near Lake Erie and we get the lake affect snow. Right now you have more snow than I had all last year. I love the first snow fall where everything is white. We usually have snow by now,but these last few days we were in the 70’s. I just hope we have some snow for the first day of deer season,which comes in the Saturday after Thanksgiving

Corn meal is non combustible and is pushed up into the grooves under the patch reducing gas blowby.....all kinds of interesting things to try......I had a cap and ball revolver loaded 5 months ..no problem with right technique...but that another story

Have you used an over powder patch or card.....have you tried corn meal over the powder...I have seen articles over the years claiming benefits over both .... and also saw saw one person using a wafer of lube under the bullet

Are you going to still make a video from the bench where you shoot with and without your loading rod in the gun? I suggested this a bit ago. Shoot like 3 shots of each please?

Hello would you like to sell one of your cap making setups. I'd like to have something of my hero in my collection. Ur the best. Thanks

Nice

Thank you very much for keeping things simple. Too many people over complicate things. That tends to take the pleasure away of getting into certain hobbies.

So, I saw a video the other day, where a gentleman from the U.K. mixed together the 3 ingredients to make B.P.. Amongst other things. That was all he did, was mix it completely. He then loaded it into a flint lock pistol, and it went "bang" just like the real commercial B.P. he shot. Obviously, not with as much force. But it did work. So my question is, how much difference does it really make. If you actually weigh out each charge, and shoot it. Now I don't own a cap n ball revolver yet. So my little world is a rifle. How much velocity difference is there doing all that extra work and expense of tools?

Nice work! That 's very interesting. I'm going to try that.

Any plans to sell conical on the etsy shop?
