    I have a question for the Smoothbore crowd

    You will get a lot of opinions on this topic. My recommendation is a. 62/20ga Northwest Trade gun or an English fowler. I have a trade gun that was built for me years ago by Jackie Brown. It's, hands down, my favorite gun. I chose to go with a 36in barrel, Queen Anne lock and iron furniture. It...

    North American Muzzleloading

    I stopped reading his stuff years ago. He was just a paid mouthpiece for whoever was footing the bill. He wrote a bunch of stuff claiming that a PRB would not kill game and should not be used. We should all buy his sponser inlines instead. Nothing but greed and ego. IronHand

    Main charge question

    I have used up to 110 gr in a 54. Are we talking about modern powder or fur trade era? I have read that the original powder was not always of the best quality. Perhaps heavier loads to get the same performance? IronHand
