wM1,
Nope. Won't be in Colorado. Just a bit of a stretch from Pennsyltuckey
Lucky,
Well .... Humpff. I would like to point out, that Stoger doesn't have real honest to goodness HAMMERS!! Blasphemous. REAL shotguns
have hammers one can/must cock and look UBER KOOL!! So THERE!!!
After serious consideration, I am fairly certain part of the problem is/are 3" chambers. Evidence is the difference in performance wit my
antique hammer gun with 2 1/2 inch chambers. Except for the hassle of whacking off the cushion part of the plastic wad to get just
a shot cup, the shot cup has been an easy and quick fix. Works a treat. I suspect my Antique will take em down even better.
Since I reload my Cap Guns with a cylinder loading stand, I take the guns down between every stage. Wipe down the cylinder face, breach face of the barrel, arbor and water table, then look thru the nipples. I run a nipple pick (un-bent paper clip) thru any suspect
nipples. I didn't have any problems "at all" before I added the fancy schmancy depth stop to my loading stands. Always look to your
most recent change when a new problem crops up. Oh, and don't always rely on Eyeball, Mark I, A1 when making a critical adjustment.
At least use a stick with a pencil mark
