    I Let A Yote Escape

    The only time I've encountered coyotes in the last 20+ years I've been carryig one of my flint rifles. I have never even been able to get a shot off at them before they knew I was there & started making their exit from the area. :cursing: One of these days though, one of these days....

    I can't contain myself!

    I know how you feel. :metoo: Last fall, I found a roosting area that is so heavily used that you can't walk thru without stepping on droppings. There are a few trees that you have a hard time even seeing the ground under them because it's so covered with turkey droppings! :shocked2: I...

    Peep sights for hunting?

    I've got a peep on one of my muzzleloaders. It's my percussion .54 T/C Renegade. I had no problem getting my sights on quick when this guy showed up.... a long time ago.

    1858 by Ruger?

    A friend of mine has two stainless 1858's made by Ruger that he wants to sell. He has never been able to give me a price on these. What would be a fair value?

    What size balls?

    I was kind of thinking that I probably need .310 balls for the .32 with tick patches. Even that seems kind of tight when you add .310+.15+.15 (patch material on each side of ball)=.340 in a .32 barrel. But I was hoping to get some feedback from others with experience with these T/C barrels. I...

    What size balls?

    I want to get supplies for my "new to me" T/C Cherokee & just want to see what size balls you're all using in them. The T/C info that I found online says to use: .315 round balls for .32 caliber .440 balls for .45 caliber The info chart didn't say what thickness patches these ball sizes are...

    T/C Cherokee collectible

    Wow! I just bought a collectable "RARE" :grin: Cherokee yesterday. It came with .32 & .45 caliber barrels. I got it to have a small caliber squirrel gun & the .45 was kind of a bonus. After reading this thread, I'm thinking that maybe I should list it for sale & use the profit to get my...

    Two and a half weeks to go & I'm getting anxious!

    I haven't been on the forum in quite a while because of my work schedule (75-80+ hour weeks) this year. I also haven't gotten the trigger time that I had planned to be ready for my Newfoundland moose hunt. My work load has finally let up, but I leave for the hunt on the 18th of October. I have...

    Single or set trigger for deer gun

    I've got both & any more, my guns with set triggers stay in the cabinet during hunting season. I had more than one experience with the set triggers becoming a problem while wearing gloves & trying to get a shot off at a deer. As stated, it's one more thing to have to do when the opportunity is...

    Only took a second

    That's very disapointing.......to have to miss out on hunting. I was a little luckier. My back was ok, until after I shot my first buck this year. The half mile drag without help did me in though. I spent the next two or three days just sitting with heat & dosing up with Advil before I felt good...

    Bucket list

    I'm working on my "bucket list." I just posted about a trophy moose hunt that my buddy & I booked for October 2013. I have already taken lots of whitetails, one black bear, a Quebec/Labrador caribou & a bobcat with flintlocks. Next, after the moose hunt, I'd like to go after elk & mule deer. I...

    Trophy Newfoundland Moose Hunt Booked!

    My buddy & I just booked a trophy Newfoundland moose hunt for October 2013. Now, I've got to start saving my pennies.....I mean dollars. Lot's of them, but it's going to be worth it. We're also going to get tags for bear & trying to get tags for woodland caribou to make it a combined hunt. I'm...
