I just wanted to say thanks to all the folks here for all the good info I received. When I first started poking around this thread I had about 10 years of muzzle loading hunting behind me. But as I read through the posts on this thread I relized I really knew nothing about the care andfeeding of a muzzle loader. I shot a couple of deer but my percentage was not very good. Well when I got my new Omega I really wanted to do it right. I read all the posts and asked questions (must have been a million) and you guys always came through for me. I got that gun shooting 1 in high at 100 and 50 yards dead on at 150 and 25. by getting the right powder and bullet combo. Before I just grabbed any bullet and sighted it in at 100 yards and getting close I thought was the best you could do. Well the kicker was I shot my first deer with that Omega on Monday at 140 yards and the shot placement was perfect. I know if it wasn't for all the good info I got here this would never have happened. Thanks very much to you guys you all know who you are. Also now it seems that I am turning into the go to guy for the other guys in my club when they need some help. I am no expert this I know but you guys have definetly mad a big difference in my knowledge of muzzleloaders. thanks again very much and happy holidays to you all. Mike
