While I am new to this forum, I have been shooting traditional muzzleloaders for a good share of my life. Due to a divorce, an overseas military deployment and other stuff, I have been away from the sport for a while. But, there is a match this Sunday and I fully intend to go out, have fun and probably embarrass myself. I haven't seriously shot my flinter in almost two years. I got my shooting stuff together last night, lubed some patches and made sure I had enough round ball (good thing, since I can't find my mold...) and did some steady-hold dry firing exercises. Dang, but this rifle got heavy over the last couple of years!! I can see this is going to take some work!
Anyway, at the moment I am more interested in the shooting end of the sport and not the reeacting so much. That may change as I hope to attend a couple of Rondies this Summer. Since my primary rifle is a Dave Motto-build Dickert .50, I suppose I need to go buy a waist-coat and a tri-corn hat.....
