First traditional muzzleloader kill

[lorren68]

Got this young doe yesterday morning using my T/C Hawken with a 174gr rb, .15 ticking, moose snot lube, over 80gr of FFFg Goex BP. The deer was quartering away from me and I recovered the RB under the hide of the off side.

Congrats on your first Traditional kill and a great RB placement.

I seen my father shot a nice deer this year with his MK85 50cal 80grs of Pyro at 117yrds I was probably more tickled than he was.
It was the first time I seen him drop a deer, but it was his 4th, one with a 30-30 the other three with his MK85.

Now if I can only get him to hunt with a flint lock.
Maybe next BP season if I can afford the Chambers Early Lancaster kit I have my eye on he could use my TC 50cal Flint Lock.
