Aolder gentlemen took the time to take me shooting a flintlock and I just thought it was so cool. It became an interestbutI never hunted with a ML till I was 16 or almost 3 years later. Though this was the same time I went gaga for archery sothe bowbecame my early weapon of choice.

I'll be honest the only reason I bought an inline was for hunting. It was at the time when I was working as a guide, so my season was limited. The inline bought me the opportunity to hunt for myself each year a variety of regular and draw game species, as Sept and Nov were right off's due to work. At that time less pressure was a fringe benefit to ML hunting, no doubt about it. Though now it really isn't as much a benefit it seems darn near as popular as rifle here! I like the aspect of the ML and shooting in general. As well reloading has become one of my favorite hobbies and a ML is much like my reloading hobby.The fact our deer ML season is in October my favorite month to be in the field has a lot to do with it still though.Besides deer I've used my ML to harvest moose and bear, I hope to include antelope & elk to that list in the not to distant future.
