Smart set up !! I love the pillow ticking tip. I stopped carrying a short starter when I coned my guns
Great minds think somewhat alike. My horns have one strand of leather hanging from the staple, with one, two or three knots in the strand. After I have cut one patch at the muzzle, the rest of the strip is passed through that hole to hand the strip on the bag strap.
Love it! Yes they do! Good idea!
Good advice hoss. I know for me, I keep a simple bag in the field. When I leave for work and I got my Fusil, I bring everything in mine. When I'm leaving my big truck to shoot it, I'll pair down to what I need, and leave the rest in the truck. I'm out 4 to 6 months at a whack. But I got 00 buck, #4 buck, #4 bird, #6 bird, and round ball with me in the truck. Been wadding 5/8 leather over powder, and natural unprocessed wool over the shot. Been patching .6 round ball it's pretty tight. Was pondering backing down to .575 though. Pondering rolling a few buck and ball paper cartridges for fun to have.
good vid great info thanks from va to tenn
Just got my new bag
I like the spit’n, real world! Darn, I was hoping it was a new video, keep em coming!
I do to, and that’s the feedback I get from most folks but I’ve got two really loud bees in my ears about it. I’ll have a few out this weekend! Thanks!
Bob. It would be interesting to see if a 500 meter hit a fig 11 target? With a long rifle???
I live in Vegas , having a hard time finding other muzzleloader enthusiast . Anybody out there from NV.
Love your channel sir
michael Hogue Thanks!
If I remember correctly... Smokey Plainsman on ALR lived in Vegas. Not sure how to put you guys in contact with each other though.
OldSchool Jack He’s also on the muzzleloading forum...
👍 = es gibt nichts mehr zu sagen! Alles perfekt!
Great video! Most of my stuff is similar to yours. The only differences are that my back pouch has fire makings(flint and steel, char, glass, and birds nest material), and I threw away my short starter. The cone on my rifle is such that I can thumb the ball flush, cut the patching, and go straight to the ramrod to ram the ball down. There are fewer loading steps and I don't worry about a lost short starter.
You seemed to have questions on your pouch you placed in the center of your back A bit of history if interested
Jaeger’s developed 1498 in the 1770s shipped to US and Canada the belly box was standard equipment of a jaeger soldier who had to have 7 years apprenticeship prior to being accepted as a jaeger. On You Tube you will find a Cincinnati Ohio
A German military jaeger rifle by the American Revolution Institute at marker 20:20 will give insight on the single pouch and the video was insightful on the gun , tools soldier , training and clothing from a rifle from 1498 and still holds a place in American history
I hope your not using that cannon on squirrels. Lol
If it's smoothbore you can load shot
Sharpies are period correct. Thanks for the good videos
That is a great idea for identifying the powders in your horns. Sorry, but I'm going to "borrow" it! Thanks.
Good! Thanks!
should always carry water. maybe a flask of some sort.
Alway carry water! Thanks Swamp!
Great video
You missed the cell phone and ear buds because people can’t function without them!😃
No doubt!
Looks pretty good man....
Thanks 👍
Good stuff thanks
Can we get a update, hope ur back to normal
Been watching a few of you videos and subscribed today, thanks for what you do. I have an off the wall question; your strip of patch material do you have it pre-lubed with something or do you have it dark in color for an aged look? Thank you
Hey Banjo, I prelude a strip and tie it on before I go shoot. The darker color is from my lube but it does make it looks nice and old. Thanks!
Sorry about the grief over spitting Bob... That's nuts.
Probably some anti gun dipstick looking for a reason to tattle on you and that's all they could find.
OldSchool Jack I agree. There are two of them, on and on about spitting and how terrible it is for the youth who want to get into muzzleloading... Tiresome.
Hey Bob, wishing you a speedy recovery. Was wondering who makes the double pouch? Also do you coat your bags in a wax of some kind? Thanks.
Thanks Clark! I’m just about back to normal! I don’t wax them. If they try to get stiff on me I’ll apply a leather treatment of some sort. I’ve never had much problem with leather goods needing much to keep them going. 👍🏻
@@BlackPowderTV Ok thank you. Good to hear you’re doing better hope we see you back soon.
Hey Bob. Where did you get the hat sir!!
Jay Cook I bought it from an ALR member who was a reenactor. I’m not sure who made it but it’s my favorite for sure. No label on the inside except the 1770ish period label that reads “Hats made and sold by Peter Jones, Charlestown. Opposite White and Holden’s Store”
Thanks for the info my friend.
I am wondering how and what do you lube your patching material with..
I use bear grease mostly. Sometimes with a tad of bees wax mixed in to give it some body when it’s hot. I also use Mink Oil from trackofthewolf.com. Great stuff.
@@BlackPowderTV I usually use a mix of lanolin, beeswax and the mink oil, but it is a solid..Do you "melt" itto apply to your patch material?..Got no bears around here, maybe in southern Ohio..lol
@@johndeeter4030 I do melt it and then dip however much I think I’ll need for the next day or two. Soak it for a few seconds and then wring it out. I buy my bear grease from the longrifle shows I attend. Picked up a gallon at the last show.
Excellent! Is your patching material pre-lubed, or do you carry a separate container of ball lubricant?
Thanks! I prelude the strips I hang from my bag for hunting but carry a tin of lube for the range.
Just curious. Just bought a beautiful double pouch bag from Jim Dell( Gen Nis He Yo trading company) for my smooth rifle that’s on order. Bag is a little smaller then I was hoping. 6x7 range. To listen to you, it sounds like you prefer a smaller bag and maybe the smaller bags were more period correct???? Would it be ok or period correct to carry both round ball and shot options at the same time while carrying the smooth rifle?
Gene Slodysko Hey Gene, 6x7 is fine and I love double bags as well as Lymans of the same size for smoothbores. It will feel veeeery small when you first put your fingers into it that’s for sure! ....but, worn high, so you go into it with your fingertips and wrist bent is the best way to carry with small bags. Smaller bags are found more often from the period as well as seen in original paintings and drawings of the period.
Yes, HC, so definitely carry for both shot and round ball. Your bag will be set up for shot with a half dozen loose balls in it as well. Also loose in the bottom will be your separated cards and wads or whatever wadding you decide on and you can load your balls with that same wadding or carry a strip of material for patching. I carry my shot in a shot bag slung over the opposite shoulder. 👍🏻
Gene Slodysko Also, if you find the pouch too ‘flat’ you can wet it, not soaked, and put some shot in an old pillow case or if your shot came in a sack, empty most into a coffee can or something and put the bagged shot in the wet pouch to stretch the leather into a more rounded, open shape and let it dry for a day or so. Make it work for you.
I need another bag since I got a shot gun I’d like a Quality bag but nothing super expensive you know anything that will fit the bill?
Hey J-Dubb! The Leatherman makes great bags for a fairly reasonable price. Best bags in his price range but you can also check the for sale section of americanlongrifles forum. Great handmade bags pop up for a reasonable price pretty regularly there.
@@BlackPowderTV thank you I’ll check them out
should have asked this in one of your other video's but what is the best rifle twist for a round ball? Thanks
Jim Comer Hey Jim, that’s a pretty complicated question and a big can of worms once you get into the weeds. Faster rates demand tighter combos with a better rifling grip which is easier to achieve with smaller calibers as the balls are more maliable. Generally speaking, .32 - .45 up to .58, depending who you ask, likes 1 in 48”. Larger calibers of say .54 - .62 and up, 1 in 66”. Lots of variables but that’s generally it. Google “Greenhill Formula”. Great question. Go to the American Longrifle Forum and read the threads on the subject. Lots to learn. Thanks!
For patched round ball, the slower the better. Unlike modern weapons with conical projectiles
Am I the only one who never leaves home without a canteen for water and first aid pack (tourniquet and pressure bandage, etc)? I know it may not be "period correct" but crap happens.
No sir. I carry both but they’re in my possibles bag. A hunting bag should be small and carry just shooting stuff so you’re not fumbling. In my larger bag with my sammich and beef jerky I often have a bottle of water and always a first aid kit. 👍🏻 Excellent point.
Where did you get your graduated napping rod?
Deja vu
Yea, sorry, I go into the why in the description. Sorry about that.
@@BlackPowderTV No need to be sorry. I watched it again. Seriously someone reported you for spitting? That's messed up. UA-cam and FB have gone full communism on us. They are censoring and deleting all kinds of stuff. Spitting doesn't bother me, know folks who chew so it's natural. Good video
Rich Stone Thanks Rich. I’m dumbfounded myself, and yea, what’s the world coming to?
What brand/model powder measure is that?
It's a handmade measure. I bought it from a longrifle show years ago. I don't remember who made it.
@@BlackPowderTV I think I'll make one out of an antler instead of those brass tubes.
Sounds like a plan. I like the antler ones as well. The brass or bronze ones would have been commercially available in the colonies in the period and the ones made from antlers would have been seen on the frontiers and would have been made by NAs. Either way is perfect.
Where did you get that double bag?
It was handmade by an artist on the ALR forum from an original design dating from around 1770. Post a request on the forum and one of the makers will make you one or one of the guys will have one for sale.
Thank you! It’s a fine looking bag!
