  • I'm going to have to buy a flintlock soon, if I don't stop watching this channel. BTW, what do you use for priming? 4F, or just your barrel powder?

  • @DangerousDan762 I usually start out with the 2f from the cartridges. But after ten rounds things foul up and, I switch to 4f to keep things running smooth

  • @murpheysmuskets I never had problems with fouling. I wonder how 4f is erasing any problem with fouling...

  • @LutzDerLurch It doesn't erase it. 4f just ignites easier and my frizzen is getting soft. So after 10 rounds and the frizzen getting dirty I switch to 4f as it burns faster and easier.

  • @MrFlaujac That's simply because the 1795 Springfield musket is a copy of the 1766 Charleville (and the 1816 Springfield is a copy of the 1777 Charleville modifié an IX).

  • that look like a charleville 

  • 150 grains ! 150 grains ! 150 grains !

  • Can I make a request ?

  • were did u get that 1795 springfeald

  • Nice Musket! Is that one built by Pedersoli? There is something addictive about shooting black powder. "Once you go black, ya never go back!" XD

  • @murpheysmuskets Okay. I usually simply whipe it clean every few shots. There are cheap Powders out there, which have a wider range of Grain sizes, like the original BP of those days. these powders ignite very easily.

  • the British are coming!
