Do you shoot Traditional, Inline, or both? Please dont let this topic get out of hand. Just state Inline, Traditional, or Both.

This will be interesting

A lot of us including me shoot both.
Why do you feel this topic might get "out of hand"? Lee

BOTH

Both but plan on going traditional only very soon.

People might argue and say Inlines should not be allowed and stuff like that.

I shoot traditional.

'cuz some one like me might come along and say, Inlines for guys who dont know how to shoot a real muzzleloader

Thats why.

But for me, I just like the traditional feel in my hands and the challenge. Plus its easier to buy roundballs in my town. They are STILL out of 385/ 410 grain great plains conical! Its only been TWO months. Think they'd get an order in sooner or later.

Yes.........

I have taken a (1) deer with the inline and while it was an interesting experience, I liken it to a centerfire. This year I will be using a flintlock with PRB. I hunt deer on my own or with one other hunting partner who also uses black powder (inline). Now if I were to hunt with a gang who used a CF's well the inline would be the prudent choice with the boy's.

Now for moose, I use the inline. I hunt with a gang who use centerfires. I use it for the extra whomp I can get from it without sacrificing a ton of range (I'm good to 200). If I were to hunt moose on my own (which isn't really a bright idea at my age [:@]) or with a single partnerI would consider the traditional style.

Bear are generally a one shot deal over bait and a traditional would do just fine.

To me it's the additional challenge. If I have to eat beef[:@][:'(]instead of deer due to the restrictions of my firearm of choice....so be it. That is something I can live with. When I'm part of a gang, I have to be able to do my part for the gang and not be so restrictive.

I shoot both! You got a problem with that go speak to my friends Thompson and Center.

The first8 or 9 mebbe 10, were sidelocks. One of those a flinter.

.45's, .50's, .54's and a .58 double, no regrets and much dead stuff.

Shooting not your average inline prettyserious now, well for the past....since '99.

And, it 'taint no T/C Encore...............

.50 cal, saboted 240 grain, true weight charges of FFg......prolly send the3X9 off to the custom shop, for turrets, in the spring.

It's a phase I'm going through........

Sharp Shooter

lots of both...
