    T/C .54 Grey Hawk ?

    I like that P.A.Myers. Very nice. I've taken at last a dozen deer with my .54 Grayhawk. The day I got it, I took it past my bro-in-law's and we shot it at 40 yards at an old target. It was cold so we only shot 4 times total. Not much to shoot at but a hole in the old target back. We ragged...

    left handed shooter in a right handed world

    :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: That reminds me of my son. He can't zip his pants with his right hand. I found a Left-hand Lyman for my son. I'm right handed but left-eye dominant. I have no problems shooting right or left.

    Barn Guns and Hog Rifles

    We always used a .22 Magnum for slaughtering cows and hogs. We never kept it in the barn, tho. It was actually an over/under .22WMR/20 ga. rifled Savage. It was kept in the truck during planting season. SHot a few skunks in the field near the back hog lot. There is actually a USDA regulation...

    .54 Caliber Round Ball Whitetail Load

    I use 75 gr Triple 7 , in my TC GreyHawk .54 . Most of my shots are less then 40 yards. Seems to be the load it likes best. I wouldn't go over 85-90.

    In-ear or behind-ear muzzle blast protection

    I believe he is refering to the projectile speed being subsonic, not the speed of sound. I hunt with a friend that is completely deaf. He can't hear a shotgun ,firing slugs, 100 yards away, but can hear my muzzleloader 1/4 mile away. It's a different tone, I guess.

    T/C Gray Hawk

    The GrayHawk has the same stock as the New Englander and the Black Mountain . I have a .54 that I have taken many deer with. GREAT shooter. Where I hunt, there always seems to be alot of briars. I don't have to think about not scratching the synthetic stock.

The friction of the hides rubbing each...

    left handed shooters

    I bought a left-handed Lyman Deerslayer .50 , several years ago, for my son. The local gun shop ordered it for me, once I found what I wanted. Real nice shooter.
