    Barn find. ID please

    I’m going to go out on a limb here and say it looks like a home brew to me. Stock ain’t right for any muzzleloader I’ve ever seen and I’ve never seen one where the drum was support by the stock wood instead of the lock plate. Someone more knowledgeable will be along directly.

    Is FFFG the Cause

    Am I seeing a group that’s somewhere around 1 1/4”? If you were 50 yards away and unless my eyes are playing tricks on me I wouldn’t care if the patches came out looking like confetti if it shot that good.

    Hunting Stories Thread

    White Deer

    If you want folks to look at your deer then you need to move that fine lookin’ rifle out of the pics! Congrats on the fallow doe.

    Round ball and blood trails

    @stikshooter I am not saying that the conicals you like are not effective. I just don’t think they are necessary. A deer hit with anything can get away. Those suckers are a lot tougher than most people think. I don’t have to kill a deer to survive. Hunting is something I need to do in order to...

    Round ball and blood trails

    First, my comment wasn’t directed at you. It was a general comment on the topic at hand. Not sure why you took it so personally, but since you took it that way let me make it that way so you’re not disappointed. By your response I can tell you can’t stand it when someone is different than you.
