Went out with my uncle yesterday in New Jersey for the muzzleoader opener and scored on two deer, my first with the smokepole. I was very impressed by the gun, liked it a lot and will definately be picking one up for next year.
The first was a doe at about 15 yards or even less which came in at about 3:30pm. She dropped in place. The second is a 2 1/2 year old pitiful spike, but it had a big body and I actually thought it was a doe. I took him at about 40 yards. He piled up after about 100 yards. An old man was congratulating me on that one for getting it out of the gene pool!
