    Cold weather effects on ML

    Ok so I have a t/c 50. cal hawken, I'm shooting a 360 gr maxi-ball with 80 gr of powder. This summer I was shooting a 4 inch group at 100 yards open sight and figured that was good enough to kill an elk. The weather was between 60-80 degrees at 4500 feet of elevation. Anyway I went hunting and...

    Recoil Pad

    Hey guys I have a T/C hawkin percussion rifle in .50 cal. I love shooting the gun, but can't shoot it very much. That metal butt plate isn't best friends with my shoulder. I'm going to buy a recoil pad. Anyone have a suggestion? Just what you use. I don't need to know why yours is better or...

    How meticulously do you measure powder?

    So I'm semi new to black powder, but have been reloading for a few years now. When I reload I'm very careful with powder measurements. When it comes to black powder I know it's about volume and not weight. So when I premeasure my powder for black powder I just kinda eye ball with a powder...

    Muzzleloader sight

    Ok guys I've got a t/c hawken muzzleloader and I'm debating the idea of putting on different sights. I can shoot about 3 inch groups at 100 yards with the original sights. I put a dab of the wifes orange fingernail polish on the front sight to help see it a little better like I have done on my...

    Maxi ball lube

    Hey guys I just bought my first muzzleloader from a guy who shot it and told me what worked good in it. So I'm shooting a t/c hawken .50 cal. It shoots maxi balls really good out to 100 yards. The only thing is the guy was old school and greased his only bullets with bullet lube. I'm thinking...
