Good afternoon. Wildcat, Are your AOL measurements correct?

Evening Encore, I believe that they are no longer manufacturing, selling inventory that is on hand. I will call Monday and get an update and get back to you, for information purposes. It's good to see the Muzzleloading side of the forum being used. Thanks for the reply.

Afternoon JP100, If your looking for a percussion cap in .45 or.50, I would look into a Thompson Center Hawken. Although, they have recently been discontinued, I assure you that it was not a quality issue. I have just finished reconditioning mine and it looks and shoots great. I use...

DMAX1800, You may want to check the Math on the difference on the brass measurements. Have a great day.

Evening everyone, Interesting Topic for the Forum. I appreciated the comment by Bart B with regards too high RPM's influencing accuracy. I did a quick spreadsheet for twists, 9-10-11-12. Velocity range of 2300 to 2700 FPS. Interesting to me was that the difference in RPM's between a 9 twist...

Good Afternoon' I would like to participate in this conversation. Unfortunately, I don't know how to insert an Excel spreadsheet I created called " Shooting Angle Matrix ". I have always thought, a direct range to the target multiplied by an angle multiplier, base on the degree of...

Thanks for the replies. Some interesting reading with the posted links. Thanks again.

Afternoon to all, I think we would all agree that Powders have different Burn Rates and Primers are rated Hot to Cool. My question is: Would you match a slow burning powder to a cool primer ? How about a fast burning powder to a Hot primer? Your reply would be appreciated.

Evening all, I am new to the posting process for LRH. This is my first post, and it is: I am in the process of putting together an Excel spreadsheet to better know the ballistics of my loads. The problem at hand now is, with regards to stability, there seems to be a difference in SG ratings...
