the Teschner Collath was in fresh air again



anual goose hunting I was again in the wrong group because the goose came again to the other side of the water. after a heavy shooting from there and close to complete darkness when we were seeing only the high flying birds and it was very useless to fire one goose came along when my neigbor was saying I make a hit. so I ask for one of the lot the dogs bring out of the water and got it. probably not the one I shot at but the Collath make a lot o noise, smoke and flame and other thought someone shot with sigal flares on the goose. maybe one third SxS, the rest over/under there whats a high rate for SXS today. me the only one with blackpowder shells, 3mm shot self rolled.
I learn my lesson about clean barrels with duplex loads before, little nitro powder load under blackpowder, from "Shooting the british Double Rifle". I had maybe 15 grains of the very clean burning swiss rifle powder under cheap shotgun blackpowder and after 10 shots the barrels were cleaner than shooting only the cheap powder one time. Not that it dont make any dirt but helps realy to have the barrels cleaner than before.

Congratulations on that goose, Lancaster.

Duplex loads can make a HUGE difference in how BP dirties any gun.
with duplex loads, I find a lot less 'caking' or buildup of the powder fouling.

I have try real duplex loads in a modern 12 ga once, iirc, 10 grains unique( what I had then) under 70 grain of cheap blackpowder.
" cheap blackpowder" means one of the brands your barrel looks like a hundred yours old stovepipe after the first shot. I learned from the dublex experience that the bottom powder in a shell will care for the dirt the upper powder is making.
think I load here 15 grains Swiss 2 FFg and top it with 65 grains czech Fg powder. barrel looks surprisingly clean with this, not like nitro but for blackpowder excellent.

btw, next year not with the Collath but the mother of all shotguns if everything will be the ok then
