    Musket Hunting

    Killed a 93 lb. doe with my 1863 Springfield this evening shooting a Hornady 525 grain Great Plains bullet. This is the first deer that I've taken with it. I usually hunt with my .54 Renegade when I primitive hunt. The Springfield is a little awkward to hunt with when hunting out of trees.

    Free T/C Renegade

    A good friend of mine gave me a 54 caliber Renegade late Sunday evening. Boy was I surprised! It had belonged to his Granddaddy and he had no sentimental attachment to it. Also gave me powder, and bullets. Anyone have recomendations on a good load for this rifle? I have a 50 caliber Hawkins, 45...

    Kentucky Pistol

    Any of you powder burners own or shoot Kentucky Pistols? Found one today in an old hardware store covered in dust. It's an old CVA that was ordered 10-15 years ago for someone, but they never came back to get it. Never been loaded. Proprieter said he would take $120.00 for it. I'm a rifle...

    Muzzleloader Game Size

    Smallest critters I've taken with a muzzleloader are armadillas(possum on the half-shell). These pest dig holes everywhere. Seen them jump as high as 8 feet sometimes when shot with smaller calibers.

    Hunting stories

    Left the house about 4:00 A.M. one morning several years ago. As soon as I arrived at my honeyhole in the woods, realized I had left the lead at home. Percussion was already loaded but felt I needed some extra. Called the wife by cell phone to get out of bed and bring more. Hunting Club was only...

    Arrowheads

    Getting away from the primitive firearm topics by asking this. Do any of ya'll hunt and collect Indian artifacts such as arrowheads, spearpoints, scrapers, etc.? I look for them all the time in clearcuts, streams, riverbanks, gulleys, and dirt roads. I've been pickin them up for over 35 years...

    CVA Kentucky

    Just bought a .45 CVA Kentucky thru the internet, rifle barrel does not use wedge pins to remove it. Took the two screws out of side of stock where wedges normally are located, barrel won't budge. Any suggestions on taking it apart?

    Howdy ya'll

    Been readin thru the forum for awhile now, thought I'd jump on the bandwagon with everyone else. I own a .45 and .50 caliber, shoot deer and coyotes with them all the time. Enjoy the traditional way of hunting as both mine are percussion. Down here in Alabama we enjoy a long hunting season due...
