    Adjusting trigger weight on Traditions Deerhunter?

    Hi all - I have a Traditions Deerhunter that has a very heavy trigger pull, makes it a little hard to stay perfectly on target. Are these triggers adjustable in some way? Thanks!

    I don't understand used gun pricing

    I've been thinking about this too and here's what I don't exactly get, and I do not mean to be provocative, it is a sincere question: I get why the price of some TC guns are high, they have a great reputation and can no longer be obtained in any fashion. There have been two listings on this...

    Lyman Deerstalker Flintlock - Longevity question

    Hello all - I am thinking about getting one of these in .50 cal. If well cared for, cleaned and oiled etc after every range day, and assuming about 50 shots a year through it...Can I assume that it will stay operable for decades or should I worry that the frizzen will need to be rehardened or...

    Hooked breech rifles

    I've only seen the hooked breech approach...the Pedersoli Hawken Hunter has a different system and I cannot realize visualize how it works to remove the barrel...if someone has pics or a video on that works...

    Will Lyman 57sml fit this?

    Thanks. I did know that TC was for Thompson Center, I just meant that the reference to "just like on a TC" did not help me because I do not know what it looks like when you mount a peep sight on a TC, not having seen one.

    Will Lyman 57sml fit this?

    This is my first traditional muzzleloader, so the reference to the TC does not exactly clear it up for me! Does no body install them by drilling and tapping the barrel itself forward of the breech plug? It's always on the tang?

    Will Lyman 57sml fit this?

    Just so I can visualize, where does the sight sit on an actual lyman, like where does it get attached to on a GPR or Deertsalker?

    Will Lyman 57sml fit this?

    Crescent Buttstock

    Someone needs to post pics/videos of this...because it seems like you'd have to shoot across your body, like an archer? Feet and body 90 degrees to target, upper body gun upper bicep/where shoulder meets chest?

    Crescent Buttstock

    Two other threads have recently been talking about the issue of what kind of production guns are really out there. As a total newby to traditional muzzleloading, I felt constrained to buy the Traditions Deerhunter or Lyman Deerstalker because both were under 500 dollars {in case I did not like...

    Where have all the production guns gone?

    As someone who was looking to get into traditional muzzleloading this year {of all years}, it was very tricky. I got lucky, I think, in that Midway USA got in a small batch of Deerhunter percussions...they literally sold out in a day, but they were there for a moment, so I bought one. I could...

    Hook Breech and Patent Breech

    Gentlemen- I appreciate both of the insights. I am not looking to be a long range shooter. I am looking for the moment for a gun that is more engaging to use than my inline ml. I bought the Deerhunter because it was what was available this year though I would have preferred the Deerstalker. The...

    Hook Breech and Patent Breech

    The reason I was thinking of the fast twist was so that I could go between full bore conical like the Hornady Great Plains or No Excuses bullets or experiment with the kinds of bullets that are not as traditional depending on Ballistics and terminal performance. I do not take shots even with...
