Thread: Any Blackpowder Shooters out there?

Yep, I use real blackpowder also. I also use hand made round ball instead of conical.

I would not consider myself to be a "Shooter" but yes I own three

.50 CVA Pennsylvania Long Flintlock
.50 CVA Hawken percussion
.44 Navy percussion Revolver

I don't shoot them often enough to be any good with them, but I can hit with them..

I mostly use Pyrodex powder, and round balls

I have a CVA Hawken .50 Caliber caplock. It is fun and I use Goex real black.

I have two:

.58 Caliber Model 1861 Enfield reproduction
.44 Caliber Griswold and Gunnison revolver reproduction

Love the smell of black powder in the morning! Or anytime of day! I use Pyrodex powder and round ball in my two:

1.) Thompson Center 50 cal. Renegade I built 25 years ago from a kit and can kill a bulls-eye at 120 yards with it.
2.) CVA 50 cal. Kentucky pistol with a hair trigger..........just ask my chin.

I use to have a Renagade, sold it to get a custom made one. I have loaded my revolver and cleaned my .40 cal. rifle, with the .50 cal. next, I haven't shot them in a year, too much going on in life.

No pictures?!? Here are mine, top to bottom: .40 Lancaster County rifle by Michael Seidelman, .50 Buck's County rifle by Ross Westgate, .54 Jaeger rifle by Nathan Stephenson.
