Thanks Ron, its nice to know its still works I spent most of my spending money on my strain gage at the time I was buying equipment. I can tell you that some of my loads group out to 250 yards with minute of deer accuracy. And that the last 3 deer I shot with the muzzle loader were big deer for around here [ nothing like what I used to get in IL and they all dropped on the spot and the loads were all 140 BH and the bullets were a 200grain50/40 Lehigh a 200grain Shock Wave and a 250 grain bonded Shock Wave the damage inside was amazing to me and the Exit holes were about normal say 1/2 inch.
