    A Note on Pulling a Load

    I also always shoot mine out - pick a target and take an offhand snap. Just makes me feel good. Cleaning ain't that bad. :thumbsup:

    GPR issues?????

    Good question - I don't know of any custom work being done with the patent breech. Doesn't mean there isn't just none I'm aware of. In fact I would go out of my way to avoid one.

    First Muzzleloader Rifle

    Buy a used one in good shape - TC,CVA,Lyman etc.... TC's can be had for under 200 sometimes and shoot it til you find out if your gonna stick with it and your personal tastes. Then when your hooked - you get your nice one.

    Austin Halleck Shooter's

    490 85gr 2f .015 pillow w/minkoil The only reason I went with 490 is it loads easier. Ticking rinsed not washed - My bbl still tears up a loose woven patch. But this baby shoots.

    Rifle vs smooth bore

    It usually goes like this cap to flint to smoothy. A smoothy loaded right will hold its own to 75yds.

    Austin & Halleck

    Mine was blowin patches also (at first) Blew .010's and washed ticking .015's but rinsed ,015's that were still a little stiff and the weave stayed tighter all came together at once just in time for season 90gr GOEX FFG stiff ticking and a CCImag cap. Maybe bbl just broke in or right combo but...

    Austin & Halleck

    Try the search they have had mixed reviews but I'm all for them, I love mine and am extremly happy. I've had CVA,Lyman,TVM and custom made. They blow away all production models IMO. Wouldn't give it a second thought.
