    270g TC MaxiBall

    Anyone know who carries them??? I can't seem to find them; I am only finding the 370g and the 320g. I am in the process of working up a load for my TC WMC in .50. The two most promising ML bullets thus far are the 270g Buffalo Ballet and a 370g TC Maxiball and I sure don't need a 370g Maxiball...

    Best muzzleloading bullet WMC .50

    What have you found to be the best muzzle loading bullet for the TC White Mountain Carbine? The rifle will be used for deer hunting and has a 1:38 twist (measured). I need to work up some loads for this fall. Thanks, Bob

    TC WMC Load Suggestions

    I just picked up a new (to me) percussion TC White Mountain Carbine in .50. The barrel is a little rough but the price was right($75). Just about everyone up here has moved on to those new-fangled things that some call muzzloaders and few want to hunt with the side locks these days. My...

    What do you really need to do to keep the powder dry in the rain?

    I never really worried about keeping my powder dry in the rain as I am pretty much a fair weather hunter but this season I missed a lot of our muzzleloader season due to my wife being sick (nothing serious thankfully) so I went out on the last day of the season which was a miserable day that...

    Lost barrel wedge question

    I have a half stock CVA that I use for hunting. Yesterday I was sitting down in my stand and after hunting 3 or 4 hours I happened to notice that my barrel wedge was MIA. I noticed that it was loose on the previous hunt but I forgot to "adjust" it. What would have happened if I had fired it...

    Broken Cleaning Jag/ Range Rod

    Today the brass threaded portion of my cleaning jag broke while I was spit patching at the range leaving the cleaning jag and cloth patch at the bottom of the barrel. Fortunately I often read the treads on here, even though I don't post much, and knew enough to pull the nipple and trickle some...

    CVA Changing Dovetailed Sights

    I picked up a set of adjustable Williams Fire sights for my 50 Cal CVA Mountain Stalker to replace the fixed sights that came with the rifle. I also ordered a brass drift from TOW to punch them out/in. Though it seems like a pretty straight forward job I have never done on so I am asking if...

    50 Cal CVA Mountain Stalker Range session

    I had an opportunity to go back to the range with my 50 Cal CVA muzzleloader and work up a hunting load with it today. As some of you may remember I was having troubles with misfires and accuracy issues with this rifle in the spring. Based on your suggestions I switched to goex ffg and was...

    CVA Mountain Stalker Broken nipple advice

    This morning I was getting ready to go to the range with my CVA 50 cal Mountain Stalker as muzzle loader season opens in a few weeks and when I was putting the nipple in the drum the nipple snapped off leaving the threads in the drum. When I looked at where it snapped I could see that the nipple...

I have been hunting for many years and though I have owned the CVA Mountain Stalker (.50 cal 1:48 twist)for a while...
