Are you up to a Revolutionary sized personal challenge?

[Salty]

I’m gonna keep shooting that target until I get one completely within the black.

[Salty]

Thank you Miner’49er for the reward. Photo below. Gonna stay on my workbench until next guy hits the black. And I’ll add another Hamilton.
Tried the long range today but not even close enough to post.

My pleasure, Salty, you certainly earned it. I appreciate your reply and the photo, too. 

[Salty]

Hey y’all,

    Two thumbs up. You just doubled your money, I think? Maybe? Maybe not? Uh uh? Anyway, you really plugged it!

[Nessmuk]

GREAT JOB, SALTY!!  Perseverance pays off!

[Salty]

I’m still holding two Hamilton for the next shooter.

[Salty]

I decided to change my stance. Eyes closed.

Just kiddin. 🤣

Whatever you did, don't change a thing. Congratulations buddy.

70 grn 2f through my drop tube no wad no patch. Lubed Lee REAL bullet. Closed my eyes.

Hey Salty, neat hearing you were using a drop tube to load with.

I used to make a lot of those for BPCR shooters to load their brass with, but never did make one for muzzleloaders, although we did offer them in our catalog. 

Wish I still had a metal lathe, I would probably still make some.  Just thinking it would be fun to see if I could turn the tip of the tube into the funnel top instead of soldering a brass funnel onto it?

I used some copper refrigeration tubing and attached a small brass funnel with epoxy. I think it helps.

Here's what happened today. First time to put the whole ball in. And Salty, you better not send me a picture of Hamilton. [ Invalid Attachment ]
