Hi Jim, My first muzzle loader was a TC.45 seneca. Our club held shoots monthly in the summer and I practiced every Saturday. My gun liked 70 grs.3f goex,.440 rb,.015 pillow ticking,and crisco for lube.It shot 1-1/4" groups @ 100 yds. from sand bag rest. Hunting load was 90 grs.goex w/Lee minie bullet..

The guns had a 1:60" twist, with a shallow .003" to .005" depth, and were specifically built to take big powder charges. 32 Cal. A twist rate of 1 in 48 is considered a general compromise, supposedly capable of accurately throwing either a patched roundball or a conical projectile. Doesn't matter if the caliber is .32 or .62. However, like most "generalists", this twist rate probably is not the best for either roundball or conical.8. Mar 14, 2009. #12. In match shooting the 5 rounds are placed in the 10 Ring off hand 5 times. I think with an import production gun off of a rest 4" to 6" on a standard Black Powder 100 Yd. target would be Ok for 3 Rd. groups. This of course may translate to 8" to 12" or more in a hunting situation.

Concrete nails are easily found at your local hardware store. Heat to a bright red color and allow to cool slowly (softens the hardened concrete nail), shape with a hammer and/or files, heat to a bright cherry red and quench in oil or water, temper in your (toaster) oven at 375-400F for an hour and do a final sharpening.zodd, underhammer rifles have been very popular since the mid 19th century, for some hunting rifles but more so for target and precision shooting applications. Billinghurst built some of the most accurate rifles to see competitive use. I, among many, use underhammers for target, as in chunk and bench, casual club shooting and trap shooting.

The Hawken and Renegade are advertised as being .500 bore with .006" grooves. This gives you a total space of .512" that you need to work off of. Subtract the .490 ball and this means you need to make up .022" of space. Divide that in half and you find that you need a minimum of .011" patching for a loose fit.Ok, so this pandemic thing finally gave me the time to finish out the CVA 45 cal percussion Kentucky Pistol kit I picked up a while ago.
