I clean the wife's. Her's is a caplock and she uses a light charge, it cleans up really quick. "in the midst of a savage wilderness to depend entirely upon their unassisted strength and hardihood"

America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

We've got that on our primitive range. Along with a short hollow log that you put a clay bird in the hole on the back side, have to shoot through the tunnel. About two dozen metal targets, from tiny gongs, to prairie dogs, turkeys, small buffalo, bears and a life size deer, out to 100 yards. During our summer rendezvous, we'll do a 15-18 shot match on out primitive range, which is in the woods, not a wide open place. Its fun.
