BPCRnet was established in 2003 and finally closed in 2022 (albeit after a long period without update).
The forums were popular but over time were not maintained, and as far as I am aware the information is now lost.
The web site did however include quite a few articles of 'Technical Information,' and I have begun retrieving them from archive. While many are quite old now they still contain relevant and useful information. To date there are several articles by (the late) Dan Theodore, and more by (the late) Dick Trenk - this includes the latter's lengthy 'Black Powder Cartridge Rifle Reloading Guide.' While this guide, written in 2003, still provides valuable advice and instruction, as ever 'best practice' evolves and wider reading of current literature on the subject is also recommended.
Information is on my Research Press web site at the following link: Black Powder Cartridge Rifle
Original source and authors are still credited, and hopefully in making this information available again in an accessible format I am not infringing copyright.
Check in on the above now and again for new updates.
