    New York late muzzleloader

    His grandfather and maybe also his dad were both NYSDEC rangers. The old lingo gets passed down. I think I am settled on this question. Need a Muzzleloading tag which for out of state is $30, plus regular license and a muzzleloader. Thank you for sticking to this.

    He writes further: “If you have the [muzzleloader] stamp you can use whatever tag you want”

    Screenshot of text I just received from upstate NY ranger about this question.

    New York late muzzleloader

    I am back to being confused on this subject. I think it’s good the moderator unlocked it, because it should be resolved. I’m going to contact the NYSDEC ranger I have known well for a long time, see what he says. It’s possible there is confusion about this among law enforcement staff. Frankly, I...

    @Juniata ’s post here should qualify for some sort of tongue in cheek award. “Most innocent post eliciting most Monty Python and Bugs Bunny responses” could be one award category. Or “Most serious post resulting in greatest amount of humor” category. I have enjoyed all of this, every single...

    First flintlock deer

    Congrats on your trophy size big doe there! I also like your load and bullet. Is it in a plastic sabot, a fabric patch, or paper patch?

    First Flintlock Deer!

    I am happy for you. That’s a very good feeling summed up in your photo here. You are in good company, there’s no shame in missing. For a lot of flintlock hunters, we see a ton of high tails through clouds of smoke before we finally put a tag on one.

    Muzzleloader season camp

    The pants have not yet been sent to Filson for repairs. But my understanding of their repair policy is as you say. Not many companies left like Filson.

    Muzzleloader season camp

    You will never regret purchasing Filson anything. It is all unbelievably rugged clothing. Four years ago I found myself stuck out on a rocky outcropping point high above the valley near dark. Wonderful semi wilderness hunt, got close to a small buck i later regretted passing up. Just being in a...

    And Appalichian Thank you for the compliment. I am poaching on someone else’s original post here.

    Westley Richards double barrel

    A sentiment and commitment to history many many people share with you. Here on this particular forum I think we are supposed to say “any historic firearm” and thereby bypass the non muzzleloader types. You are too well liked for anyone to want to see you get in hot water

    Westley Richards double barrel

    When you find someone with a bore gauge, see if they also can measure the barrel wall thickness of each barrel, starting at the breech and measuring every 4-5” down to the muzzles. Doesn’t take long and will either save you problems or give you peace of mind. There’s a basic acceptable shotgun...

    Correct. I thought my prior comments addressed this. A mind is a terrible thing to lose…

    Scottish Deer Rifle

    The answers to your questions are all Yes. Dublin-based Rigby made beautiful rifles for hunting red stag. Ireland has a very long deer hunting tradition, which unfortunately is on its last legs (ha). Not as rugged a landscape as Scotland, but plenty of varied habitat to make a true fair chase...

    Westley Richards double barrel

    If the muzzles are smaller than the breech diameter, then your gun is for shot and ball unless explicitly stated in engraving on the gun itself. It probably shoots 600 grain round balls accurately out to 75 yards
