Here is my hawken rifle. .54 cal cutlet maple stock. 34 inch barrel. Inch an a eight to inch h and h brand. No longer being made. If I load it up just to take it along for the day, I put 90 grains of 3f Goex in it. When I hunt I put 125 grains of 3f Goex and always a patched round ball. If that heavy load don't kill them it will drag them to death

Awesome! Super nice bull! Super gun! Congrats on all that.

Nice rifle and a great bull! We have some good bulls here in PA but with such a small population, super hard to draw a tag. If I do though, I have a nice Lehigh flintlock .58 I'm gonna carry.

 

[Roughneck]

Great bull & a great rifle! Congrats on both and good luck this season
