    Dutch Schoultz and Blackpowder Accuracy

    Well I have to admit that Dutch's system got me thinking in a completely different direction and everything just fell together. After two afternoons on the range I'm shooting 5 shots groups with all holes touching at 50 yards. I still have a couple of other things I want to try out, but this is...

    Any particular goals for 2012 fall Hunting season?

    Last year I was lucky enough to shoot an antelope buck. This year I want a big mulie and I do mean big.

    Soap & water doesn't cut it

    In my limited experience the black is more than likely the JB itself. WD40 takes the JB out pretty quick. At least it works for me. ymmv

    Dutch Schoultz and Blackpowder Accuracy

    Lonegun1894 No offense taken. I find the system to be ingeniously simple now that I've read it. I already started implementing it and am looking forward to some range time next weekend. I think this is going to solve my flyer problem for good. I also firmly believe that muzzleloaders should be...

    Dutch Schoultz and Blackpowder Accuracy

    I received Dutch's system in the mail today and read through it after I posted this... I get it! :bow:

    Dutch Schoultz and Blackpowder Accuracy

    I have a question for you guys. Should Ballistol be diluted with water or used straight?

    I have a problem

    You don't need another 50 cal, you need a 54 or 58.

    TC Renegade

    So about 29" overall? Where did you get it? I kind of would like to do the same thing instead of a stock 33" GMB. That 4" is about .8 of a lb less weight to carry around.

    TC Renegade

    Kentuckywindage, how long is the barrel on that rifle?

    Barrel length?

    hey thanks guys. You know, after I asked this question I got to thinking about the whole thing quite a bit, I tend to over analyze everything. I also had a little range time and I came to the conclusion that I can only see so far shooting with iron sights any way. So what I need to do is switch...

    Barrel length?

    I've thought about that, but the stock on this deerstalker fits me so well that if the drop is not the same on the trade rifle I'm not going to like it. Besides, it's still cheaper to buy a barrel even though that is a great deal..

    Barrel length?

    Guys, I have a Lyman Deerstalker in 54 cal and am considering getting a longer barrel. I do believe the Trade Rifle barrel will drop right in, anyone know for sure? If it will I'd go from a 24" length to 28". The plan is to shoot patched balls and I realize that 1:48 twist is not the ideal twist...

    Lyman .54 Deerstalker

    Mine likes 90grs of Pyrodex RS, .530 ball and a .018 patch lubed with moose milk. At 100 yds it shoots 1-1/2" or less groups. Funny thing is, at 125yds they open up to about 6".

    What is your lowest hunting charge?

    I have a Lyman Deerstalker in 54. It shoots 1 1/2" groups at 100 yds with 90grs of Pyrodex RS, 530 ball, .018 moose milk patch. I hunt mule deer in wide open country so shots can sometimes be out to 100yds. I do prefer to get closer but if I have to I'll take that 100 yd shot with a good rest...

    GM 58-32x1" 1-70 drop in barrel for T/C

    Isn't there somebody out there that can take a 50 in the 1:48, easy to get, and bore it out to 58? Heard there was but don't remember who?

    Cabela's Traditional Hawken

    The lyman trade rifle is basically the same exact rifle as the cabelas rifle without all the brass trim and a $50 lower price tag. Although it does have a better rear site than the trade rifle but I put a peep site on mine and would have done the same if I had bought the cabelas rifle. I guess...
