Black Powder Compression Accuarcy

Post by FrankD »

So some of you may recall I have posted in the past about the Buffalo Arms Complete Ignition Black Powder Compression Die. https://www.buffaloarms.com/complete-ig ... pes45.html, I was able to buy one it came back in stock After years of being out of stock and it is now out of stock again. I cannot use till later, I had surgery. I found the actual patent application. Very detailed. I will be using it after surgery recovery. Patent:
https://patents.google.com/patent/US201 ... an+brouwer

I wonder if it the BP will burn better.

Any thoughts on this? Comments? Thanks Frank D.

No it will not help much if any to be honest a lot of gimmicks like that have come and gone for a long time. Look up the Lt. prince front ignition shell from the arsenal as another one.
Your improvement will come from proper sight alignment and trigger control.
It would make a nice experiment for the future after you heal up. Shoot with and without and see if you have a noticeable accuracy increase or not. Do report back your findings.

Tom, thank you for you honest, response, I will search for information Lt. prince front ignition Frankford Arsenal, once I get better I will report back on this complete ignition system.

The die is made very well and I am actually looking forward in using it.
