Well, welcome A1, good to have some fresh meat in here. With 30 years experience I am sure you will have some good info to pass on. We have a full range of muzzleloader enthusiasts in here. From seasoned verterans to novices just getting started. You will find that except for an occasional spat (you get that from us old farts) most of the guys are knowledgeable and helpful. Oh, and when we get to know you - expect a bit of 'ribbing'.
