I decided to go with new instead of used (just too many questons for me with the used gun)
Traditions Kentucky Pistol: Caliber: .50 Cal
(Not the actual gun - off the web site)
Would like some load recommendations, plus a tips you may want to pass along.
A freind of mine suggested I get the following:As a minimum, I would recommend the following supplies to get started:
.490 round balls
0.15 lubricated patches
Goex FFF black powder, or Pyrodex P black powder substitute
Ball starter
#11 percussion caps
Also when I shoot it do i clean it after each firing or how many?
