Convert 50 Cal Muzzle Loader to Cartridge? - 12/23/09
I finally got one of the modern break-action inlines with 209 priming and exposed hammer. Every time I pull the breechplug to clean the thing I wonder if I could make a new "breechplug" that would accept a rimmed cartridge such as 50-70 or 50-110 or whatever would fit in there. Sounds like great fun to me! I would not want magnum power at all. It just sounds like fun to load it with big fat brass cartridges and full-caliber lead bullets instead of ramming a pistol bullet wrapped inside a plastic sabot from the muzzle.
Has anybody done this?
Is it illegal?
