    T/C Hawken Sights

    I had a similar problem when I was breaking in my T/C Hawken. I had the sight screwed all the way down and still shot high. Make sure less powder if you haven't all ready. I went from shooting high with 80gr to dead center with 68-70gr.

    T/C Hawken lock problem

    Howdy, I'm new to the forum and muzzleloading as well. I recently bought my first rifle, a .50cal T/C Hawken Cougar. It shoots great but lately I've run into a problem. When pulling the set trigger and then the firing trigger, the hammer doesn't seem to hit the percussion caps hard enough to...
