Hello From Wisconsin

[wis_muzzleloader]

Im new to the site and new to Muzzle Loading. But have been hunting for over 16 years. I live in Neillsville Wi and hunt 300 acres of private land south of Neillsville. I just bought my first muzzle loader from a coworker for $80.00 Its a Traditions E-Bolt 209 .50 cal. Just about got it all sighted in. Had to get a different ram rod since the one that came with it, snapped. But now I have a steel one with a handle on it. :grin: Looking forward to the site.

As i was looking around I noticed that what you are saying is true, which is fine. Im learning alot about the traditional muzzle loaders and am having a lot of fun doing so. I really enjoy the site.

Hello from River Falls (western WI) and welcome to the board. The more cheeseheads the merrier! :winking:

Welcome from the center of Wisconsin. I unwittingly mentioned being an owner of " one of the other" muzzleloaders myself, but shoot both varieties. We Wisconsin smoke - polers have got to get a "Shoot" together someplace central to us all and have some fun and share a little info on the black powder subject at a shooting range. Let's toss the idea around for a while. Good luck with you're new hobby, sport, or passion. I almost forgot.......Bang Boom!

Crex, is River Falls the same thing as Black River Falls? The reason I'm asking is that I'm going to be in the area at the end of April to do some gambling. My wife and I are going to stay in Necedah and head over that-a-way after cruising through the Necedah National Wildlife Area. Necedah has traditionally been the gathering spot for archers. Wouldn't it be something if it turned into a Muzzleloader gathering spot. Who knows! Bang Boom!

Nope, River Falls and Black River Falls are two different towns. River Falls, where I live is near the western border of wisconsin (Pierce County) about 30 miles from the twin cities, MN. Black River Falls is a couple hours drive SE of River Falls, in west central WI.

I do like the sound of a Wisconsin blackpowder shoot somewhere, count me in :thumbsup:
