Honestly I shoot mostly low end ML
older CVA and Traditions I suppose the inlines are unmentionable

I find deals on things that need just a little work I have yet to pay more than 150 for a ML I had a Ruger Old army cap and ball for a while picked it up for 275 sold it for 4 when I was done working on it.

one of these days I am going to get or build a flinter the program has a couple flinters , I can run them and teach them just fine.

I am not much of a collector , more of a user trainer , for me it is about the education and procedure. a 1000 dollar rifle will have one kid shooting five 100 dollar rifles will have 5 kids shooting with flasks range rods and other loading accessories.

I got my start in Muzzle loading as a season extender , I often tell people there are basically two types of Muzzle loader people Traditionalists and Season extenders. Now I am some of both. I have period pants , shirt , sash , knife possibles bag , hat and gun. finding shoes is always an issue for me in a 15 or 16 , finding moccasins is on my to do list.
I have been getting a little bit at a time , Been to the Bloody Lake Rondy a few times , some day I will get a lodge and make a week of it.

right now I have 3 teens and they eat a good rifle in groceries every month. I tried feeding them a steady diet of venison stew , they complained a lot and my wife was off that trip at a month.
