I just finally read his statement about the mishap with the savage rifle and Toby Bridges. I think its pretty funny that when something like this happens to a gun he likes and endorses as he states in his opinion it was purposely blown up. But when this happens to another brand its totally the guns fault. He states right there in his statement he has exceeded the safe limit load many times. Boy thaths real smart. So if I load up my optima with a 150grns of loose 777 and it blows up its not my fault. You would have to be crazy to listen to this guy. He is a real piece of work. Lets hear your responses positive or negative.
IMO:
The whole notion of attempting to modernize...tomake rifles & components that happen to load through the muzzle perform like a .30-06 just to take advantage of previously established "Traditional Muzzleloading Seasons" is ludicrous to begin with.
IMO:
Someonewhoholds a modren plasticstocked, modern highpower scoped, modern shotgunprimer ignition, modern smokeless powder burning, modern high performance bullets, modern inline rifle with sealed ignition in their hands and claim that's "muzzleloading"...has totallyand completely, 100% missed the point of what "muzzleloading" is all about.
IMO: This is far closer to what in meant by muzzleloading:
