    jug choking

    I'm not sure that I know what jug choking is. I'm interested in getting my gun choked but not real familiar with the process. How much does it cost to get it done on average?

    Choked

    How exactly do you permanently choke your barrel to full if you have screw in chokes? Do they have to cut the barrel down a bit i'm assuming? Also, could someone explain what jug choking is? sorry for the newbie questions...

    trigger problem

    I had thought about that Wick but if I can find the actual part I'd rather go that route. Worst case scenario though, I'll have to go the route you suggested. Thanks for the help.

    trigger problem

    riarcher, i can't view the image. It says "image no longer available" in your post. Can you email the pic to me at [email protected]. I would say this piece is about 3/4" long, bent in a V or U shape. The width of the metal strip is probably about 1/8" or so. Thanks for the help...

    trigger problem

    I have a CVA Trapper and I have been having trouble with the trigger and hammer. I am having trouble keeping the hammer in the cocked position and in the half-cocked safety position. I took the trigger assembly apart and found that a small spring type device that puts pressure on the pin to...

    turkey load for 12ga blackpowder

    Please stop the turkey talk guys. It's five weeks away here in kentucky. I'm trying to block all turkey hunting thoughts out of my head until it gets closer. I can't sleep at nights thinking about it. I hunted 19 out of 21 days last year, missing the 2 days because of severe storms. This...

    Black Powder substitute

    I was looking through Cabela's at different powders and notice that there is some type of black-powder substitute from American Pioneer Powder. It's suppposed to be cleaner. I'm sure you guys know what I'm talking about. I was just curious if this was just for modern in-lines or if I could...

    Shotgun Load question

    Sweet! Thanks for all the info guys. I just ordered the wads from CircleFly and I am now trying to decide what type of shot snake to get. Thanks for all the help. It sure makes you feel better when you at least have some idea that what you're doing is somewhat right. Now it's time to wait...

    Shotgun Load question

    Sorry for this extremely rookie question but I just bought a CVA Trapper back in the summer. I plan to use it strictly for turkey hunting. I am not exactly sure which or what type of cards to use when loading. Here's what I tried and this didn't work too well at all. I poured in powder, then...

    Loads

    I just bought my first smoothbore a few months back. I have yet to shoot it. I plan on using it mainly for turkey hunting but thought about using it to squirrel hunt this weekend. I bought a CVA Trapper from a guy on this forum. Any suggestions on what loads to start out with for squirrel...

    Stupid Question

    I've hunted there for 10 years now. It was tough when I first started hunting down there but I've finally figured the birds out down there. I've got a great map of the whole area that I bought online for $14.95. It's a pretty detailed map that shows all the horse/hiking trails, roads and...

    Stupid Question

    That's exactly why I'm buying the Trapper J.R. I turkey hunt the first week of season all around the pioneer weapons area. I can't wait to be able to get in there and hunt. There's gotta be a lot less pressure.

    Stupid Question

    The main reason I'm asking these questions is because I'm just getting starting into muzzleload hunting and I have recently bought a CVA Trapper (which has still yet to arrive). I bought the Trapper to primarily turkey hunt and possibly squirrel hunt too. I was just curious if you could deer...

    Stupid Question

    OK, now that I understand that, how well or accurate will a single ball shoot from a smoothbore? Thanks for the info by the way. :master:

    Stupid Question

    I know this is probably a stupid question but I am extremely new to all of this. What exactly is a smoothbore? Also, what guns are classified as Percussion? :youcrazy: :youcrazy:
