    HELP!!!

    I have the Cabelas .54 and love the way it shoots, I like the looks of the snail over the drum,it just looks more streamlined and in my opinion is a bit easer to clean. The extra weight also helps with recoil with the heavier loads. Hope this helps. Iam sure you will enjoy whichever you choose...

    Picking a caliber .50 vs .54

    I solved the .50 .54 question buy gettin both :D I got a CVA Bobcat in .50 for Christmas and found a Cabelas Hawken in .54 at a gunshow and bought it. I personally like the Hawken .54 but that may be because of the fact it has a wood stock as opposed to the black plastic on the Bobcat. The .54...

    jeep and Rus This may be a little off topic but. In my rifle I can drop a .530 ball down the barrel and it falls free. No obstruction at all and when I load with pre-lubed ox-yoke patchs I have to double patch. The ticking seems to be thicker so I use only one patch. My question is should the...

    Best Deal On Muzzloaders Starter Kits

    One thing I have found almost indispensable is the EZ-Unloader. This is the devise that uses compressed Co2 to unload a rifle. I bought one to git a stuck ball out of my Dad's TC Hawken. We had used every other method to no avail. One puff with the unloader and the ball popped right out. I would...
