Default RE: new to black powder. Please help!

I think I' d skip the starter kit, and just buy a powder measure, bullets, powder, primers/caps, and the minimum of cleaning equipment: A cleaning rod, a muzzle protector, a jag, a bore brush, and some cleaning patches. After many years of trying various and sundry BP solvents that have come on the market, I have decided plain water is as good as anything you have to pay for. You will need something to use to preserve the bore after cleaning. Break-Free CLP or Birchwood/Casey Sheath to keep it from rusting. NEVER USE TC BORE BUTTER FOR THAT purpose!!
