Hope you get better soon, no worries on rushing the score postings, you just take care and focus on getting well

I have one very much like it my wife bought me a couple of years back and I use it as a skinner. The way I hold it, the tine fits great in between the pads on the heel of my hand with my index finger extended over part of the back of the blade, makes for great balance and control. I am in the...

Thanks 1971fx I will do a web search and see if anything like that pops up

I did look at the Hawken shop. My issue is I don't have the level of skill nor tools to do any metal cutting and with one shot only at getting it right I would bugger it up for sure with a hacksaw. I like the idea of the one SDSmlf showed so I could get a replacement blade sight or two for the...

I did try that, it was somewhat better in the lighter part of the day but early in the morning and late in the afternoon it was difficult

Does anyone know of a buckhorn or semi buckhorn rear sight for a TC Hawken? One that will install the same way as the stock rear sight? I think the rear sight is mounted with screws and I removed it a while ago and have installed a TC peep at the tang, and even with opening up the aperture it is...

That's not far, I go to Powhatan WMA and hunt when I can, been doing that for about 25 years

Welcome from Surry County, what part of VA are you from?

Thanks dgracia I will look for the sticky on it, sounds like what I would like to try

I have only used bore butter over the years, but I follow these type threads with interest because I would like to find a lube that I can lube up a bunch of patches with ahead of time and use as needed. I have about 5 lubed patches left from my last batch I lubed up about 10 years ago, which I...

I did the same thing at about 30yds last year on opening day of ML season, I hunt with a TC Hawken .50. I had a decent buck come up on my right and I was able to stand, turn and shoulder up because he was grazing along. I aimed center mass right behind the front leg and squeezed off...smoke...

MSmith...there's my sign :doh: I guess lowest score wins:cool:

Interesting note, I just saw that the outer ring is 10 points and the inner ring is 5, is that intentional? Ok by me, just wondering

Thanks FLY103 looking forward to it

Thanks guys, I think I will try to do both Fort Chambers and the Gun Maker's Fair at the end of July if at all possible

That is it, you made my day. I am not ready to go up there just yet, and of course I will give time. I wanted to put them in my favorites so I would not forget again, sucks getting old

Hi all, Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I have searched through the vendor/manufacturer forum and am not sure what I am looking for. I saw in a post some weeks back somewhere a reference to a gun store in PA that had a really good selection of BP arms. While I am in VA, it is not...

For me, this has been one great thread, especially learning the history, thanks to all

Emailed this morning. Abysmal results this time, I shot my Traditions Penn Long Rifle, 50 cal with .490 round ball pushed by 60gr of 3FG (Goex). I don't know the patch thickness I bought them ages ago. I was definitely pulling to the right on the first 3 or 4 shots but it was me not the rifle. I...

Printing this one when I get home from work today. That center bull sure looks small. I will likely shoot this one this coming Tuesday (on vacation)
