Gents, you are right about how jeans wear, as I am a horseman its the front of the jeans , I have to use. I need to get to spotlight with my mic and see what they have. New denim there seems a bit thin.
Realistically I should get a mould from England that is a bit tighter fit, but will continue as I am for the moment. I have both neatsfoot and mink oil, so will try them. I had used the mink oil but the bore was somewhat rougher then. I have been using the scotchbright and oil and it has improved things immensely.
As I said on the ALR pity we have no elk or moose down under. May go and give some buff ago in the Northern Territory one day.
There must be a bunch of these rifles out there in use, particularly in North America, but so little information about loads, even in some of my period hunting books. Mostly just mention hardened balls, not a lot of discussion on loads.

Cheers

Gordon
