    Dumb luck (i will never admit that) err... Great skill :P

    Went to visit my son in OKC to visit his range and do a little shooting. He shoots unmentionables and is very good out to 700 yards. I took my .62 smooth bore to shoot some clays and a few round balls. We sat down at a bench for the 200 yard gong using one of his custom unmentionables...

    How much fun is this!!

    Went to the range to shoot my Penn rifle and 62 smoothbore. One gentleman was fascinated and we spent a couple of hours discussing muzzleloaders. (he is an AR unmentionalbe shooter) Never could get him to shoot it. Guess he was a little afraid. Asked if he could video me and of course I...

    Worked up a new load for my 50 flinter

    After studying the forums and some post about how to work up a accurate load, went to the range today. The first group is with what has been my "standard load" for my 50 Penn rifle. I thought it was good. The second is after messing with the powder charge decreasing the charge a small amount...
