    Hunter Harassment

    I have no story as you were requesting. We just don’t have the population that you folks have, especially in the areas I hunt. I just wanted to mention that in my opinion, you did the preciously correct thing. Good on you. Walk

    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    Absolutely nothing. Fed my sourdough starter and ate some bannock. Thats about as close as I came. Made smoke at the range and smacked the gone that several others were shooting at with their scoped modern centerfires. Shoulda heard the comments as it rang out and the cloud of smoke wafted...

    hornady

    I’ve also used the 385gr and found them quite accurate with recoil as expected with shooting that much lead. Didn’t bother me however with 100gr 2fg in my old TC Hawken .50. Never hunted with it but did the water jug penetration test. Very impressed with hitting power but was surprised by the...

    Modifying Thompson Center's Hawken

    My TC Renegade was worked over about 20 years ago or more. The only things on it original are the barrel, hooked tang, lock and trigger. Stock and all other furniture are sand cast iron. I did the work myself so it’s far from perfect to say the least, but its mine and I like it. Fits me well and...

    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    Visited the range and played with gongs on the trail walk. Was alone the whole time I was there. Nice, warm and sun shiny September day. Our trail is completely in the boreal forest. Lots of fall colors and smells starting up. Was an excellent time. Took the .54 TC hawken barrel and installed it...

    do loaded minnie balls move

    Yes. Yes, they do move. My last mountain deer hunt a couple years back I was using my Lyman .50 GPH with home poured 370gr Maxi’s. Time came to unload at days end and I discharged my load. No recoil, weird pop and no hole in the target. I believe the cold weather (-27c) shrunk the maxi and it...

    Ml Shotguns Vs Unmentionables

    My experience? Well I shot competitive sporting clays and was nationally ranked in the low double digits before my disease wasted too much muscle to stay competitive. With that said, when I shot a black powder cartridge shotgun event (hammer guns only) at a rondy years back, I was so worried...
