Welcome to the fire and glad to se another convert join us in some of the most fun you can have just short of sex.

Sounds like ya got a nice rig there and are off to a good start. Now the fun begins like many have stated. Different powders, bullets and different combinations make for a great day at the range.

Just think you may really get bit by the bug and end up going down the primitive side lock road. Now that is what I real call a bunch of fun!!!

get ready to learn what "the grass is greener' really means. there are so many powders,bullets and accessories to try in your search for the perfect combo. you will think you have found the perfect setup,then you will read about the new perfect bullet or powder and your trek for perfection will start anew.

Welcome and good decision. I retired the slug gun and have been using a muzzleloader for the past eight years in PA's Special Regulation Area. No regrets and my confidence has grown by leaps and bounds.
