    Intro from Wisconsin

    hello to Everyone, First off, I’m 67, not 44. Somehow, this site plugged in it’s own choice for my birthdate. But, no big deal. I’ve built my first muzzle loader back about 1974, a .45 Kentucky Long Rifle. I’ve hunted with it now for over 40 years, deer and black bear. Two seasons ago, I was...

    To shoot or not to shoot? Unethical?

    Don, I totally agree with you! I grew up hunting in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, where I rarely saw another hunter, allowing me to stalk deer undisturbed. Later, I moved to the Black Hills of South Dakota, where it was similar in the back country. I hunted remote canyons by glassing to...

I’ve ordered from them in the past, but all the contact info I have for them (phone numbers, email and website) doesn’t go anywhere. I did order the wedge from an EBay seller, and am hoping...

    Intro & question from Green Bay Area

    Hi to all from a new member, I only found this site yesterday, although I’ve been shooting traditional muzzleloader for over40 years. I built a .45 cal. Kentucky Long Rifle in the early 70s. Two years ago, I was given an older CVA Hawken type or Plains type .50 cal rifle. It was an older kit...
