Re: Some BP questions
I made mine too. I want to carve one with birds head sometime. I just pack mine on my powder horn strap. 50/55/60 grain.

Re: Some BP questions
Looks good I like it. My strap is a woven strap. Im not sure how I am going to fasten mine yet. Maybe some rawhide shoe lace thru a hole in the horn.

Re: Some BP questions
If its any consolation that Goex when I shot it was good for accuracy. You might find though that you might need to up your charge from 50gr.

Re: Some BP questions
For sure, will fire a couple at 50 gr and see how it goes. I pack 55 and 60 gr measures with me.

Re: Some BP questions
Once my order for 2500 is ready that will give me lots of lead for a long time. I have enough caps to get through until suppliers catch up, with a flintlock as plan B.
