long-term accuracy

<< < (3/3)

Captchee:
well i think some good thoughts , thats for sure . but lets also remember that  the relation to center fire 'smokeless powders  is minimal .
 the velocities and pressures that they achieve  is only for the most extreme cases  concerning BP .
 not to mention the effects on the lead projectile  pretty much cap us at below 2200 fps .

 now im thinking heat could play an effect  especially on iron barrels . however most muzzleloading barrels today use  better steels.
 over time  things grow old  and wear is  accumulated.
 Everything at some time must return to its basic make up ..

 There was an old saying that we used to use a lot  in scale model aviation  
   It went like this .
Everything has a built in self destruct date . There is nothing we can do about it .
 Proper maintenance can prolong  the time of that date  but at some time , it will still come   of that  we are sure
