Zeigs Spud, Chaos, there’s this little button bellow were you type in your posts labeled “spell check” do us all a favor and use it…

Chaos, I’m assuming sense you can weld and know what 304 stainless is you actually know how to spell, you just choose not to in order to confuse me... by the way. 304 stainless the same steel they make China knives out of… oh, never mind, that’s 440 stainless…
Anywho, sounds cool Chaos, but why the scope? It’s not like your going to get match accuracy out of a smoothbore, I guess though that it’s your gun, you can do as you please, just don’t expect .5 inch groups at 15 yards…

it should be pretty accurate man im using lead balls at 160psi yep and i have thought about this and am now possibly using grade 316 stainless yes thats surgical grade the magnetic stuff, anyways sorry about the spelling im used to msn also im might have open sights aswell as detachable scope rail.

Lead balls, you talking .50cal. musket balls? If so you’re going to need to wad them as .50cal. round balls are actually .495dia. But, as long as you wad them, they’ll be fairly accurate, I’d guess groups of, oh say, one to two inches at twenty yards from a 22inch barrel, that’s if you’re lucky, a good shot, and crown the barrel right. Good luck to ya
Oh and don’t worry about spelling, just try and keep it readable, if you don’t know how to spell a word, think you misspelled one, or are like me and just can’t spell very good at all, hit the “spell-check” button. At least you used English and not retardanese (slang, gibberish, buttcheekian, what ever you call it when people type “lol that kol, I cant spll bc im 2 dum btw wht I jst say?")

Batteries? Sounds like a good why to get a free trip to the hospital to me…
Use wheel weights, I’ve heard you can get ‘em cheaper than dirt, or you can just walk around town an pick ‘em up off the street, when I lived in town every intersection had at least one some had as much as three, sometimes they’ll fall off when you turn fast and sharp. Plus wheel weights aren’t sitting in acid.

OK just a little pet peeve of mine, don't tell someone else they need to learn how to spell when you can't seem to do it yourself. "Bellow were you type." I do believe you might just mean, below where you type. And "I'm assuming sense you can weld." You might want to exchange "sense" for since. Like I said, just a pet peeve of mine.
