Ok..that looks nice..but kindly cut some slack to those in the golden years and/or suffering from other brain abnormalities. I will agree to give a nut shell account of five lines of script to cover the proceedings for free with only five bucks to cover the shipping and handling. Let me know. Dont think I do pay pal..gets me a bit nervous when commie liberals start wanting account numbers etc. Let me know. Thanks.

I bought some plastic sleeves (sabot) to go with my percussion .50 hawken reproduction. You can use .45 handgun bullets out of this device with these things.

1 rifle, 1 pistol?

.50 hawken with a pile of sabot.
1858 Remington Army revolver
Bullet mold.

You could shoot the roundballs out of a sabot if you really had to, but they do so much better with conicals. Keep in mind with this setup, you're going to have to dig the lead out of the animal and re-use it. I suggest slightly "hardening" the lead with alloy so it splatters less upon hitting a bone.

Just my few slivers of a penny since Obama came with tin snips and cut them all in half a few times.
