How many ML's do you have? What kind?
I am new to Muzzleloading (about 10 MO's) and already own two T/C's--an encore and an omega. I like them both and share the omega with my sons. Both 50 Cal.
Just wanted to know whats in your gun cabinet? Both shooting and sharing info on these guns is very fun and addictive. In Illinois we can only use ML's or shotguns for deer season. So for years I used a shotgun but wasn't happy with the slug performance. I lost a few animals due to accuracy/performance. This year I shot my first ML deer,a doe at approx 90-100 yards and I know that this would not have been doable with my shotgun. I was very pleased and I think a couple of my buddies are thinking about a ML now.:) |
RE: How many ML's do you have? What kind?
Lets see if I can remember what I have.
45 caliber Flinter from Deer Creek 50 caliber traditions Der Hunter Side lock 50 Caliber Deer Creek Underhammer 45 caliber Traditions Lightning 50 Caliber T/C Treehawk (can't remember if I still have this one though. and my sweety. 69 Caliber Great American Sporting Rifle. also a sidelock. I seem to like sidelocks a little better than in-lines. |
RE: How many ML's do you have? What kind?
I have an inline TC Black diamond in wood stock 50 cal with 1-5X TC scope for deer and an older TC Green Mountain Carbine in wood stock 54 cal which I use for patch and ball target shooting with lite charges but lots of smoke. Not as accurate as the Black Diamond but fun and cheap to shoot.

How many muzzleloaders do I own? :eek: Well I was told... TOO MANY! Trouble is, you can never have too many... I have modern inlines, flintlocks, and sidelocks. I really enjoy shooting all of them....

Bigbuck, where did you get that Huntsman .45 (I'm concerned because there are no current production in .45 and there was a real problem with some of the early ones.)? It uses #11 caps, right?
