    cleaning procedures for pedersoli frontier

    Checked the gun today and found no rust stain on the patch. Maybe this is the way to go. I will check it again in a week.

    cleaning procedures for pedersoli frontier

    I cleaned my gun 2 days ago the same way as in my first post except I finised it off by spraying REM OIL down the barrel. I then ran a patch up and down a number of times to spread the oil on the inside of the barrel. I am going to check in a day or two to see if there is any rust. I will let...

    Where to aim

    The problem with head or spine shots is the chance of wounding the animal go up when you shoot for these smaller kill zones. I have killed somewhere around 100 deer with my bow and have found that a double lung hit will kill very quickly. The average blood trail length is around 75 yards. The...

    Where to aim

    Double lung is the way to go .It is the biggest vital target on the animal. We owe it to the animal to take the highest percentage shot that we can. What I do is shoot for a spot just behind the opposite shoulder. By shooting for the off shoulder your bullett or arrow will double lung them ever...

    50 cal for elk yay or nay

    I just bought some T/C 275 grain maxi hunter last night. I am going to try them out on sunday. Do you use anything to get a better gas seal or do you just pour the powder and seat the bullet on right top?

    I am trying to get a feel for the limitations of this gun and load combo. You guys have been doing this alot longer than I have. I am a bowhunter that is just getting into Black powder so pardon my lack of knowledge. You think that a resonable range limitation for this would be somewhere around...
