The drain ATE MY NIPPLE!

Hawg is correct. And T/C has removed that statement from their manuals. It's total BS. Here's a link to their current Hawken manual, look for yourself: http://www.tcarms.com/assets/manuals/current/Hawken_Manual.pdf
Hint: see pages 37 & 40.

And his name isn't DEO. The DEO VINDICE in his signature line is the motto on the Confederate States of America seal. It means, loosely, "God Will Vindicate".

Stick around. You may actually learn a few things.

I never claimed to be an authority on barrel seasoning. I had in hand a 1995 T/C owners manual at the time. If T/C chose to change their maintenance wording as currently seen on the web site you posted (tcarms.com/assets/manuals...ken_Manual.pdf) and doing so without informing their customers of the change. I guess its a moot point. As far as the other topics you mentioned? Whatever.
 
I've always believed in barrel seasoning, now you're telling me it can't be done?

I figure if you season it like an iron skillet, it's seasoned.
I have not cooked in a fresh barrel yet, but now I'm going to have to try. :D
 
Hard to break old habits and to each his own !!

I always season a new barrel or at least try to. Mostly with mixed results and certainly not a point to argue. Mostly because it's not anything that is easily documented. I have one .45 Side-lock that responded well and then there are others that I really can't tell. I'll stick to my techniques and they are hurting anyone . ..... ;)

Just don't tell me, the tooth fairy does not exist. ...... :eek:

Be Safe !!!

It's a ceramic bore coating.
I heard that in a few years all of the Teflon coated frying pans will be discontinued from being sold in the U.S. and will be replaced by ceramic coated frying pans.
The ceramic coating will last longer, will be more effective and shouldn't produce any of the questionably unhealthy byproducts that can be released from the Teflon coated pans by high heat.
Some Traditions guns had Teflon coated bores at one time but that process didn't last very long.
And Investarms use to make some chrome lined bores along with some other muzzle loader manufacturers.
