Sure, send me some of those cast roundballs....I am down to only about 470 from the last time I heated up the pot and broke out the mold!   >:D

Got bullets and round balls, but have to double check how many of each.  Pm me your address and what you need.

Nice little rifle. Be a good camp defence weapon. 1 "Warning shot" next one for the bear. Bring it to every shoot and gathering. Someone will have the campfire smoke blow in their direction.  :OK
Thanks Leroy

The cost of powder and lead is too high for a "warning shot" - not real sure where that concept came from!!   On the other hand, my pistol is also .58 cal, if the rifle doesn't stop them.  If I have to shoot them I want to be sure they stay shot!
