    non-inlet triggergaurd on a new gun

    Hey guys. My new Pedersoli Traditional Hawken (via Cabelas) was finally delivered today. I paid the extra $25 bucks for the overnight delivery but ups decided that they wouldn't leave it at the leasing office so I had to take the day off, but that's a different topic. It's a nice rifle, nice...

    caliber selection and meat damage

    I was going to ask this in the .40 vs .45 topic, but decided to start a new one. I am fairly new to hunting, but I read everything I can get my hands on. I have read that smaller, faster centerfire cartridges, like the .270 or .25-06, will do more meat damage to deer, antelope, etc, than will...

    45 in Colorado

    Hey all. Here in Colorado, the regulations require a minimum projectile weight of 170gr for an mz from .40-.50 cal. This precludes using a rb in a .45 (for deer, antelope and black bear). Do any of our Colorado hunters use their .45's with conicals, or do you just skip-ahead and use a .50 or...

    Range Report

    First shots with a muzzleloader. 45 cal prb, 25 and 50 yards. I am hooked! wow that was fun. I set up my target at the 25 yard line, to try to ease into things. The only targets I had at home to bring were full torso targets, which did kind of make me feel awkward, since the other guys there...

    ramrod attachment in barrel

    Hey guys. My lyman trade rifle was just delivered yesterday. .54cal percussion, I am so anxious to shoot this gun. The only problem is that it seems the guy at the factory who cleaned it up for shipping left something in the barrel. I'm just guessing, but it seems as if it may be the cleaning...

    American Eagle Arms

    So, I did it. I pulled the trigger, pun intended, and got myself my first traditional muzzleloader. It is an American Eagle Arms .45 cal caplock. The muzzy equivalent of the Universal Japanese Motorcycle, as I understand it. I don't mind that; it's my first and I like it so far. One...

    Hi from Denver

    Hi all. My name is Matt, and I'm new to muzzleloading. I am currently in the market for my first traditional gun, and debating building or buying. I really appreciate all of the knowledge and experience on this board, and especially the civil nature in which people discuss, and disagree. It...

    Europe, Scandinavia and Africa?

    Hey all. Can anybody speak to the mz regs outside of the US? I know a few people that hunt out of the country, but with cf and bows. I've never spoken to anyone who has wanted to take their mz hunt overseas.

    Tools

    Hi everybody. As a new guy to the traditional muzzleloader community, I have been curious about building vs buying. If one were to start with a perfectly clean work bench, what tools would be required to build a rifle from a kit, and what would you estimate the cost to be? I am getting more...
