I'am going to buy the Pedersoli Gibbs target muzzle loader. After sticker shock of how much store bought cast bullets are I think I will cast my own.
Several questions I have. I thought muzzleloaders had to use a 100% pure lead projectile ? I'am seeing numbers for the Gibbs 1:20, 1:30, Is that one part tin
to 20 parts lead ? I can get plenty of pure lead from a local scrap yard,where do I get the tin ? is there a sodier I can mix ? Does the Gibbs shoot a conical ?
Will the T/C maxi pure lead work ? will I need to size if I buy a good quality mould ? Still confused as to why Pedersoli does not recommend all pure lead bullet
for the Gibbs.
