At least someone is having fun with cap & ball revolvers. This guy posts new You tube vidoes often and focuses on having a bit of fun with them along with the usual details. Nice change of pace.

Thanks Navy,
this guy has posted some enjoyable Youtube reels.

Good one, Six.  J Stone, Cap and Ball Fanatic, is a good guy.  Some of his vids are worth the time.  He’s right out of central casting without trying to be; my idea of a pistolero.  He speaks well too, but doesn’t sound like Michigan.  Yesterday I watched him doing what he called Tutt shots, dualist, with a ‘51 at 75 yards.  He’s not all hat & air, the man can shoot.  I liked his Griswold vid too.

I watched a few of his videos and they're pretty good. However I don't understand how lubing the barrel with any kind of lube is going to let a Remington run for 70 shots.

Hawg, I did purchase some of Blackie's gun butter out of curiosity. It's very soft and after a couple of months it has started to separate and the oil is puddling. I make my own lube concoctions so I don't need anything commercially produced, but it did work on a pair of Uberti Remingtons for about 40 shots each. However, I used it on top of each chamber as well so the stuff was going everywhere so I suppose that really helped.
I now believe in this approach--cap & ball needs a soft but not runny lube but bullet lube grooves gets something stiffer.
G Dog, I know that "Hickok" 75 yard shot is not impossible. I have access to property owned by NSSA guys and I used to finish my shooting day with a cap & ball pistol by unloading my last six shots at a 2'X4' steel plate set at that distance. I could usually get 3 hits anyway.

Yeah but he puts it down the barrel.

Yeah but he puts it down the barrel. 
I know Hawg, and I don't understand how lube down the barrel only would work either.
