I have been shooting for many years, but only recently started muzzleloading. I have this question...... Does anybody cover the muzzle while hunting, in order to protect the powder. I was thinking of using a finger cot or a finger from a latex glove.

If anybody does this, do you fire through the cover?? Will it stick to the muzzle??

Does anybody cover their primer??

I am shooting a Knight Wolverine w/ Nikon glass, 209 primers and 777 pellets.
