I know it's been quite some time since you put this video out but I want to thank you ever so much for all the information that you have given I will follow you. Have a great day and stay safe!
TetonTodd it looks like you no longer post but I wanted to thank you for this treasure trove and wealth of information. Thanks for all the time and effort you spent on these masterpieces and leaving them up. Many blessings.
Thanks for posting. I enjoyed watching. I've already made my powder horns, very simply made with home made leather straps. I've also made a hunting bag but I used some very thin leather taken from leather upholstered chairs (my wife's cousin was in the upholstery business and gave me a lot of leather). I made the bag just what I imagined it would be before I really looked at some videos. It's kinda big so I want to make another.
Wish you were still making videos Pard! I still enjoy watching them. In fact, I'm sharing this one to my Facebook page Mountain Men, Long Hunter and Rendezvous..... 18th to early 19th century.
Great video. Lots of good info for someone thinking of getting into muzzle loading and frontier life. I have seen many videos on this subject but the one thing I have yet to is how to fill the powder horn. If you could enlighten me I would appreciate it. Thanks.
You might get this a lot but what about knives, tomahawks and war clubs? And are you going to get into the clothing and other gear they used? And how they cooked and what they cook? How they set up their camp for one night and what they did for during the winter months.

Great video! Just a word of correction... Appalachian is pronounced "Appalatchun". ;) . Love your channel and appreciate all of your hard work and information. God bless from the mountains of Virginia!
Opal, Commercial made horns sometimes had a threaded plug in the base that you could unscrew to fil the horn. More primitive handmade horns were simply filled through the spout using a small funnel. I have a small tin funnel but often I simply roll a peice of paper into a funnel and use that. It is slow going but once the horn is full it lasts a long time unless you are a frequent target shooter. It helps if you have someone else gently tap on the horn while you are filling.
Sorry to be so offtopic but does anybody know of a trick to get back into an instagram account? I was dumb lost my password. I would love any help you can offer me!
@Colin Ashton i really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now. Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
Hot water is what works best for me my dad was showed by a mountain mans son I can get it spit spot in 5 minutes and dads Thompson center from the 70 is still a perfect shot
I have a CVA Squirrel Rifle, but there is no way to attach a screw-on worm to the end of my rammer. What should I do/use? Carrying a big cleaning rod could get pretty ugly, and I saw that spring-like trinket you showed in your video, so what should I use?
I have one too. I bought mine used. It has an aluminum ram rod. I want to make a wooden one out of a 5/16 hickory dowel. I hope to use a fired 30 carbine brass for a ferrel. I will drill out the primer pocket and thread it for store bought actachments. I hope to clean it up for my grandson. John Davis jax fl
you can get ramrod ends from track of the wolf and replace your existing ramrod end with the threaded version, or get all the bits and bobs to make a new one however you like it, which is what I did for my rifle
I shoot BP and would like to be able to reload in the field with a Lyman 301 tool. Is it possible to find a possible bag to hold the tool with loops to hold the die. Thoughts?

Hey Todd, are you still doing anything in muzzleloading? Any more videos?
Thanks
I just have a little hair on rabbit skin pelt pouch.
You said you were hunting wild horses? I didn't realize people do that, what do you do with them then?
Beating them.
Your carrying 22 pre-loaded shot in your loading blocks, why would you want to carry additional lead and a ladle. Man, how much do you shoot ?
