Great idea for a thread & great post. Thanks. I'm strictly a meat hunter too. I put 3-5 in the freezer per yr. 5 this past yr. I make at least 40lbs of deer BBQ & at least 40-50 lbs of deer/bacon burger. Plus lots of grilled chops, roasts & stews & hearts cooked in red wine, onions & fresh...

FYI - They are RIFLES, NOT - abortions. Thats seriously ridiculous. I do however 100% agree with your last sentence/disclaimer. Up close & personal is very exciting, but so is the skill & concentration it takes to make kill shots on moving game at long range too. Or long range bench rest...

Now THATS what I’m talking about. His barrel twist might not be ideal for conicals though, but dang if I wouldn’t try some

Thanks for your reply

100% On Point! Dang good moto too.

We call it - brotherly mud slingin where I'm from. I don't want a life without humor in it

100% NAILED IT

Thanks for the pics. Thats beautiful there & your smokepole is absolutely beautiful as well.

Thanks for posting the link to the roundball ballistics calc. Though I don't shoot any roundball its still good to learn about & to now be able to pass along to someone else that it will help. I love the JIm Varney quote. With my Appalachian roots, I resemble that remark.

I don't know anything about how to plug in the load with a roundball for a ballistics drop chart only for bullets. There are variables that would really require you to shoot your gun & build your own drop chart regardless of what info you might hear here. I'd suggest zeroing your gun in at...

Good post!

It makes no sense to me at all to pour 4-5 molds to heat it up, only to have to remelt down the bad bullets, instead of using a torch or the furnace etc to pre heat the mold to make the 1st pour a good usable bullet.

I don't agree with that perspective at all. Everything is subject to modification & improvements.

Just " Blowin Smoke ".

Now thats a good one right there. I've used that many times.

Thanks for the heads up on commercial flux, what do you use instead of it? I just got my first casting set up ( used from a friend ) and I really want to start learning to cast my own conicals for my ROA & my .50 1:24

Nice to see the change. Good on ya sir.

I'm from southern Md. Great post.

Man thats something that I'd absolutely love to attend. I moved from the central east coast where a big muzzleloading shooting & hunting community exists, to north Fl. where theres really nothing even remotely close to me where anything of interest to me muzzleloader-wise is. If I didn't have my...

WELL SAID SIR!!!
