    Black powder silly questions thread

    Inline 50cal muzzle loader. The one with a bolt, plastic stock and true glow sights. Sorry if that winds up the purists...

    My first silly question:

    What do you find the best way to lube the projectiles is?

    As time goes on I'll come up with more silly questions so stay tuned.

    The best method is a cookie cutter and Google or You Tube are your friends.
    I find warming your bullets helps in cold weather and Tupperware pillaged from the kitchen to keep them clean and dust free.
