I am also quite interested in how you use a scope on a Muzzleloader hunt. Those are only used if the hunter is unable to see. Just curious.

good video camera. Very smooth and crisp. Did not like the poor shooting. Obviously it was way out of the shooters range, especially if he wasn't using the shooting sticks the other guys had. Less music, more action.

If thats the first video, very well put together.

295gr Powerbelt according to the comments section. Looks like both shots blew up. Didn't see any sign of entrance on the other side, no blood on the other side at all. 2 massive holes on one side. And some people around here call that a good performing bullet. That's pretty sad right there.

Hard for me to believe a powerbelt could do that damage. I have killed four whitetails with them an none exited or did damage like that!
One 8 point had to be shot twice..high shoulder shot..won't be using anymore!

I don't believe those were exit wounds toytruck. I'm fairly sure those were entrance wounds with the bullet blowing all to deleted by JW. pieces!
That is the key problem that the advertisers tend to not tell you about or flat out lie about. Extremely poor penetration and they blow up just like they did on that speed goat. If the boy had hit the shoulder he would have just blown the poor things leg off. How anyone with a sense of humanity in them could use those bullets is beyond me.
