Thanks for all your comments. I was pretty sure they would work just fine, but thought I would get some input just to verify. --Dawg

Hi Folks: Going thru the primer stash, I found a brick of CCI 209M primers. I got them from an old friend years ago, and he has passed, so I thought I would verify my thoughts here. Planning on using them for my black powder shotshells. Mike Venturino always advised using magnum primers in BP rifle cartridges. I figure that in BP shotshells, (essentially low-pressure loads), they would be safe & OK to use. What does the expertise on the Wire say??? Thanks in advance. --Dawg

Good Evening: I bought a pair of NIB 44 caliber Navy Brassies made by Pietta, cuz I wanted the barrels. Anyone looking for 44 caliber cylinders? These are from new guns. They are new, but not scroll engraved. They have factory nipples. $150 for the pair + $11.85 for USPS Priority Mail, fully insured. If you only want one, insured shipping will be $11.15 Paypal or personal check. Thanks for looking --Dawg

I have one with the loading lever & wedge screw for $100 shipped. If interested, I can forward pictures. Thanks --Dawg

Fg is my favorite Shotgun powder. Lots of smoke & flash!

How much brass do you need? As far as loaded ammo, looking for smokeless or BP? I know I have some Buffalo Arms BP ammo, & maybe some Black Hills smokeless. --Dawg

Years ago, writer Sam Fadala did tests showing significant accuracy issues when the sprue was towards the powder, as opposed to facing up towards the muzzle. That's why rifle shooters put the sprue up. 33 minutes ago, doc roy l. pain said: So what’s the advantage of swaged balls vs cast FWIW: I have won many long range pistol matches with my Buntline ROAs using swaged bullets As was pointed out, at CAS pistol distances, it does not seem to matter where the sprue is. But, I frequently shoot Josey Wales, and, for shooting at the rifle targets, I make sure the sprue is up. And, for long range matches, I use swaged balls. By the way, at CAS pistol distances, 454 round balls in ROAs are plenty accurate. Just my experience --Dawg

Here you go!

Nice gun at a good price. I turned it over so folks don't have to stand on their heads to view the pic!!! --Dawg

Hi: Minor glitch today. I got them out, but could not photograph or measure them. First look makes me think that they are slightly smaller than my cattleman. One has both cylinders, and the other has only the one. Both are in excellent shape. Pics and measurements come tomorrow. Thanks for your patience. --Dawg

OK, thanks -- Let me know! --Dawg
