    First traditional harvest

    That’s the only reason I even made the post, I was proud of my buck and my accomplishment. The part that frustrates me is that I’m being painted as some type of tree hugger, if that was the case I wouldn’t be holding the musket in my one hand and the “dead” bucks rack in the other. I think I’ll...

    First traditional harvest

    Can I just say I’m happy I hit him! 😂 this road to traditional equipment has been a bumpy one and I’m sure thankful for all the things I’ve read on this forum. I just hate to argue with my fellow outdoorsman. I’m a hunter like most of you guys, just looking to put a little meat in the freezer...

    First traditional harvest

    I had bought the T/C big boar off of gunbroker because I had always wanted a 58cal. I have a T/C cougar as well and a few other T/C’s I always had an obsession with them. Anyways this was going to be my first year hunting with traditional equipment exclusively. I bought a Lee REAL mold and my...

    First traditional harvest

    I tried overlooking your opinionated comment on MY post, for one I never asked for your opinion, whatever I choose to say in my post is MY right. If you don’t like it or agree with it then I reckon you can go kick rocks. As for acting like a man, I can assure you I’m man enough and don’t need to...

    First traditional harvest

    Call it whatever you’d like, dead is dead! When you pull a carrot from the ground, thus “harvesting” it, are you not in turn “killing” it as well? Both terms seem quite synonymous to me. Hey different strokes for different folks.

    Wrinkles affecting accuracy?

    Just casted a few 36 caliber maxi balls today and granted I didn’t take a lot of time most of them came out with a wrinkle or two. I have a Lyman electric furnace and the bullets were cast out of a T/C mould that had been smoked prior to casting. I left the first couple bullets in the mold to...

    First traditional harvest

    90 grains of goex ff and no patch with the conical, just a smear of T/C pine scented bore butter. The gun loves this load and will shoot clover leafs at 50 yards off the bench

    Struck gold today

    I’m in agreement! I’ve always wanted a 36, but always a day late or dollar short.

    Struck gold today

    Stopped by my local shop today just browsing and happened to run across these gems for a STEAL. Now I just need to find a 36 caliber rifle!

    First traditional harvest

    Afternoon everyone, I’m a long time reader who finally decided to join the forum. I’m using my first post as somewhat of a new member intro as well as a highlight of my”traditional” muzzle loading journey. Attached is a picture of my first buck taken with traditional equipment and with bullets I...
