when you get pissed because your ps2 and xbox hunting game don't have a muzzleloader.

RE: how you know you got the ML bug
Your know your done when...
Every piece of fabric or old clothes you throw out you have to mic and wonder how that would work as a patch for your round balls.
You start thinking you need to make your own bullet mold to get just the right design and weight of pure lead bullet for your sabots.
When your out scouting your hunting areas you find yourself looking for native flint to use in your rifle.
You are constantly tweeking your lock, trigger, sights, rifle balance, and loads.
You start considering hunting other states to get enough tags to try out all the new stuff you are experimenting with.
The only time your centerfire rifles and handguns see the light off day is to get an oil wipe down or check to see if it's still zeroed--even though you have no intent on actually hunting with it.
You start thinking about getting another rifle even though the one that you have now is the one that will be going hunting or to the range anyway because it's just about perfect now.
Everything that you use for your muzzleloader you feel you have to make yourself.
You have to start making excuses on why you can't go golfing; or anywhere for that matter, thissaturday because you want to sneek off to the range to shoot some blackpowder and they think you do it too much already.
