    What load should I start with?

    First of all, Thanks to everyone who has replied to all of my previous post and questions. I have finally joined a local range and will finally get the opportunity to shoot my sons CVA Mountain Stalker .50 cal for the first time this week. While I admittedly know very little about muzzle...

    Recommened Capper

    Thanks for all the info guys. I have just purchased a Ted Cash capper online. While I wait on it to arrive I think I'll be making some of those leather ones. The capper I bought looks kinda snail shaped and I hope it works as well as some of you have stated. I read in the gun manual that...

    Recommened Capper

    CVA Mtn. Stalker .50

    I just assumed that since this gun was only $99 and looked relatively new it would be commonplace. Thanks Kentuckywindage for the for the list of stuff I still need. since Zonie mentioned loads for my gun, the CVA manual recommended I start with 50gr but the only measure sold at my local store...

    CVA Mtn. Stalker .50

    I recently purchased a CVA Mountain Stalker Rifle for my son who wanted a Muzzleloader as an accessory to his Boy Scout O.A. Native American Regalia. We looked for a "dummy" replica for awhile then found this gun at a pawn shop while visiting family out of town. Since it was only $99 and looked...
