This is some that I can think of. I am sure I forgot some.

Black powder rifle supplies

DECIDE ON THE KIND OF POWDER

• Pyrodex
• Triple Se7en
• Goex
• Black Mag3
• American Pioneer Powder
• - loose or pellet



TOOLS NEEDED

• See through powder measure
• Cleaning jag
• Cleaning mop
• Patch worm
• Bore brush
• Short starter
• Capper/de-capper
• Loading jag for the projectile
• Nipple pick


CLEANING SUPPLIES
• Isopropyl alcohol 91%
• Car windshield washer fluid
• Bore butter or lube
• Gun Oil – Birchwood Casey Sheath, REM OIL, Breakfree CLP
• Q-tip safety swabs
• Cleaning Patches
• Bore Solvents
1. Birchwood Casey Bore Scrubber
2. Butch’s Bore Shine
3. M.A.P. – Murphy’s oil soap, alcohol, hydrogen peroxide

PROJECTILES

• Sabots for the caliber of rifle
• Bullets to match sabots according to the diameter of the bullet
• Conicals
• Roundball and patch

Primers or cap or flints will also have to be purchased depending on the kind of rifle you get. If you're shooting flints you might want to make or buy some knapping tools.... For 209 primers, I like Winchester. For #11 caps I like CCI magnums or Dynamite Noble. Flints I like Black English or Amber French flints.

You can make your own swab liquid out of the car windshield washer fluid and isopropyl alcohol. Mix it 50/50 or straight alcohol for sidelocks. You will also need the alcohol to swab the barrel clean of oils before you load and shoot for the first time......
