Default DOH - forgot the powder charge!

.50cal cabelas hawken percussion @ 50yds, .50cal hornady roundball, t/c prelube .015 patch, 60gr pyrodex rs. after about 10 shots, i was satisfied with sighting in the rifle.

with a few mins of range time left - i lost my rhythm trying to rush that last shot, i forgot to pour the powder charge! i tried that trick of powdering the nipple & the co2 bullet discharger (neither worked). it was a bear to wrestle with but i was lucky enough to yank the prb out using the puller.
