These are just what is needed to load for black powder. They fit well and performance out of the muzzle is the result. A++
Great kit. With 20 rounds per cycle it is a breeze to reach ample volume. I found that just a spontaneous cleaning every once in a while to the dopper (rolling mold) as glue gets sticky as it dries onto the plastic. Very accurate dipper Hole puncher is sturdy and neat in its function. Wax heats right up & covers bullets evenly
Used to rewax 50 cal mimie balls which had dried out. Clean easy to use and reuse!
Is perfect.
I have a 44 but need 44 Walker which is taller
Makes creating paper cartridges a breeze
Nothing else anywhere I found that fits this need. Price is better than other containers that are NOT the right size, or would have to be Jerry-rigged to serve the purpose.
I never racived my package so I contacted the company by email and they never responded plus I never got a refund or a replacement for the package not being delivered i didn't even get a response from them saying the reason y i didn't get my package after I asked them y did i not get my package im very unsatisfied with this company and it was my 1st time ordering from them
Very nice black powder kit.
To be given for Xmas gift
They were exceedingly helpful.
I accidentally ordered the regular .44 kit, I reached out asking if it was too late to change my order and they corrected it for me and then made suggestions for correcting the other items in my cart to complement the the kit I thought I ordered vs. What I actually ordered! This kit is pretty awesome! FYI I use the era's gone mold and it works 99% of the time (because I messed something up those times) kit is easy to use and while BP is fun loading up a dragoon can be a bit tedious, but spend a little bit of time making cartridges beforehand while watching TV and things roll right along
Works like a charm. didnt take long to figure out and my 1863 sharps goes bang everytime.
Its really cool to make linen and paper cartridges. Wonder if my 4th Great Granddad did the same. He was a Sargent in the 5th Alabama. Calhoun County Sharpshooters.
I accidentally ordered the wrong one and reached out to them and they not only corrected the order but suggested what other items should be changed so everything would work with my 2nd model dragoon!
still trying to learn how to use it without wanting to throw it in trash
I first bought the slide-top version for the .44, thinking it’d be slimmer without the hinge, which is true. However, that box has the cap holes right alongside the cartridge holes, which makes it tricky to dump the cartridges out one at a time without losing the caps.
The flip top, at least in this 5-shot .31 cal arrangement, has a small compartment at the end for the caps, so it’s no problem to hold a finger over that section whilst dumping the cartridges out.
Overall, I like ‘em both.
I use this to make cartridges for a new Uberti 1849 Pocket Model, and it works well. I ground down the powder scoop to throw 11grains of FFFg powder, as that is all I can fit in the gun under the ErasGone conical bullet. It’s tricky assembling the things with such a tiny bullet, but not unmanageable.
This little toolbox perfect for Colt BP pistols and the nipple pick is perfect for any Black Powder pistol/rifle. Small and retro cool, get one! Great customer service also
and it works very well. It does take some patients if using a filler to 'take up space' with reduced powder charges.
I’ve used this on replicas and 3rd generation Colts (which were much tighter than the Italian replicas), and was very glad to have it. The nipple pick is a nice touch.
I’m glad somebody makes this tool, makes it well, and for a reasonable price to boot!
Goods were exactly as described and delivered very quickly, even although overseas (Scotland).
Bottom line: if you have a percussion revolver and you like history and/or convenient reloading, then you need one of these kits.
Using roundballs is a little tricky, but doable; the kit works spectacularly with the historical (and excellent) Johnston & Dow conicals from Eras Gone bullet molds. I found using 25grains of Swiss FFFg made for easier seating with those bullets in my Uberti 1860 Army; using the included powder measure throwing ~27gr (which is a historically-correct charge for use with a conical bullet in Colt’s Army Revolver), I could just BARELY cram that pointy bullet down far enough to clear the face of the cylinder.
I loaded a good number of both roundball and conical cartridges with this kit, and had no problems loading or shooting them in my unmodified Uberti revolver. Reliability and performance were both excellent: accuracy was better than loose-loaded roundballs, and I didn’t get any failures to ignite until the gun was quite dirty (about forty rounds fired with no cleaning).
