Ok guys did you discharge your muzzleloader before you put it away for the season?

A member of our hunt club was cleaning his gun before a hunt and after he ran a dry patch he went out on the carporch to shoot a cap to clean out oil. He forgot he had left a full charge in it from last year skipped a hot round into the side of the wifes car.

Several years ago my next door neighbor borrowed a gun from his brother. While he was "cleaning" it in the living room it went off (i know what your thinking, i asked the police the same thing) and a 50cal ball hit his son in the right hip and exited through the left. My sons best friend lived 3.5hrs.

Is yours still hot?
