lol. ok good deal thanks for the help!!
I can almost guarantee you have a clogged nipple or breech area. You will need to pull the nipple and do one of 2 things or both. First, get a nipple pic/piece of wire. pipe cleaner/qtip and make sure its clean. You should be able to hold it up to the light and see thru it. The nipple should be removed and cleaned, and the breech area it screws into cleaned with Qtips every shooting session. Secondly to get it unloaded you need to do one of two things. Get a bullet puller and pull the bullet out the muzzle. Then you can dump the powder out(you will need to break it up with the ramrod as it will pack down pretty tight). That's the safest way to go about it. Then you can thoroughly clean the gun
Second way, but not as safe. Unscrew the nipple and put a couple grains of powder in the hole, rescrew nipple in and fire it. If you need a nipple wrench or a bullet puller, let me know and I will mail you mine and you can just mail it back when you are done. Let me know
Thanks Allen i will let you know! sounds like i need to give it a good cleaning.
CO2 dischargers work great for blowing out a load safely and cleanly. Its a great little tool to have in the range box.
They are easy to find too.
Like BPS said, the sidelocks are a weird design. The hammer hits the primer and throws a spark. Problem is the spark has to go around a corner to get to the powder as its off-set. If everything is not clean, then you can see where the problems arise
