Finally picked up accessories, bullets/sabots, Pyrodex pellets, etc., etc., so hopefully this weekend I can start to get acquainted with the Traditions Pursuit LT I received from my sons. Now that I have at least what I need to get started, I'm sure there will be a slew of questions, some of which may make longtime BP shooters roll their eyes. I ask their patience. Here are a couple that just came to mine.
1) My owner's manual talks about marking/re-marking the ramrod each time you change powder loads and/or bullets. What do you use?
2) Also the Pursuit ramrod comes witha reversible cleaning/loading tip. The loading tip is to help with hollowpoints, polymer tips, etc. When you reverse the tip to use the loading surface, the ramrod when repaced on the gun now extends about 3 inches beyond themuzzle. Would you leave it like that after loading for hunting, or reverse the tip after loading?
3) What do you use to store your pellets and primers when in the field?
4) When loading the bullet, I know you should not have space between it and the pellets - is this sort of a matter of feel or ?

Thanks to those who take the time to respond. Probably will send in some more especially re cleaning - seems like pellets, bullets,primers, all had some sort of cleaning instruction, and all were somewhat different.
