    Hammer Down
    Hey Pal
    I Picked up a new to me toy today for $100.00. It is an italian Brass frame Black Powder revolver in .44 Caliber. I have not fired many Black powder revolvers, so I could use a little advice. I Bought some Traditions .44 round lead balls to shoot in it that are .451 Diameter. I also Bought the .44 wads. I have a can of Hodgens R-S Powder on hand I would like to use up before switching to P-Powder Pyrodex. Do you know how many grains of Powder I want to use in this revolver shooting these lead balls and this R-S Pyrodex Powder ? Thanks, Hammerdown... Kurt

    DO NOT CUT THE HAMMER SPRING! A reduced power spring in a 10/22 well lead to light strikes and FTF. E-mail me and I well forward some .pdf files on working your 10/22.

    Hey man do you think you can send me a link on how to sand and stone down the sear and hammer for my rugger 10/22. I bought a VQ hammer kit at a gun show saturday but I dont understand how the hammer will work inside the receiver because its to narrow even with the shims that come with the kit. So I'll just stone down my own hammer and sear and cut a half a coil on both sides of the hammer spring.

    I would love to but your in Arkansas aren't you. The haz-mat fees when shipping just kills the price. If I could get four or five guys together here in my area I would order 25lbs. Split five ways it would be about 65-70 bucks for five pounds. That's enough to reload my Walker three times!

    Hi. I recently joined the forum and was hoping you could help me. I have a Ruger 10/22 and recently purchased a Clarke trigger kit. I saw in one of the postings that you know of some further tuning that can improve the trigger further. If I read it correctly, you have a pdf that explains these modifications. Would it be possible to get a copy of that?

    Thanks,
    al

    Just saw your review! Thanks so much! If I can be of any further assistance, don't hesitate to ask! I was wondering if I can quote your review of the Triple P Loader?
