    Out of the Game for a Decade but Bought a new ML Today

    White Hots are pelletizes powder. Use them in the inlines. The Hawkens I have, both from my Grandpa, appear to be in good condition. I am going to pick up some of the real stuff to use in them. I have a jug of Pyrodex that is no telling how old. I am just going to dispose of it.

    Out of the Game for a Decade but Bought a new ML Today

    My gramps used to call Pyrodex “Pyrocanker” lol. I used White Hots for the last several years that I was muzzleloader hunting. Very clean compared to Pyrodex.

    Out of the Game for a Decade but Bought a new ML Today

    Swiss is real black powder, right? I don’t think I have ever used it. How is it compared to black powder substitutes as far as performance? I am seeing Ceddite Clerinox 209 primers available. Those are new to me.

    Out of the Game for a Decade but Bought a new ML Today

    Definitely on the list. I think they make a bore plug specifically for BH209 for the Acura. May as well buy that too I guess. I already have a couple of boxes plus a few tubes of IMR White Hots to play with as well. Boy oh boy, I am as excited as a kid at Christmas.

    Out of the Game for a Decade but Bought a new ML Today

    Well I went a did a thing. I hauled off and bought a CVA Acura LX-R. I will now have 4 muzzleloaders. I already have two Hawken style and an old Black Knight inline. I currently have all 3 out on the work bench tinkering. Looks like I will be rekindling the old smokepole obsession this season...

    Tell me about your tent

    I just read this whole thing before I realized it was old. @Hilljackoutlaw what did you end up going with? I went floorless and I can’t see myself going to a floored tent as far as backpacking goes. The weight to space ratio just seems to favor the floorless shelters from what I can see.

    Everything but Hunttalk

    I see value in it. It helps me stay up to date and connected to a lot of the issues I care about. It connects me to people from all across the country that share similar interest as me but have varying views on those issues. It lets me build relationships with people I would never have that...

    Small/mid-size trucks, best all around

    Nice review! They really are good looking trucks to boot, at least in my opinion. How many miles have you put on it so far? If I weren’t a Tacoma nut, the Frontier would be my easy next choice. It is just hard for me to pivot from the Tacoma when I have been watching them flat work for so...

    x-bows Montana illegal for old and handi-cap , during the archery season

    Lol Montana being so bad at managing wildlife that they can’t risk having the elderly using crossbows during archery really isn’t a badge of honor.

    x-bows Montana illegal for old and handi-cap , during the archery season

    Well now, I feel like I was taken advantage of…lesson learned. When this issue comes back up, and it obviously will, please have better talking points than people who want to use crossbows are p*****s.

    When you carry one out that's still kicking

    I have had squirrels come to life in the pouch on my game vest a couple of times. One of them turned in to quite the rodeo.

    Or he can go to Wyoming and let the crossbow bolts fly during archery season.

    Glad you noticed I didn’t say that. I did a triple take and was thinking I really either need to quit multitasking, be prescribed psych meds, or both.

    Pre '64 winchester

    The .30/.30 would be my choice if your dad used it. I actually have one on the way that belonged to my great uncle and now my uncle. My uncle told me he had decided to sell it which is somewhat baffling to me, but he gave me first crack at it. I already have one that was my first deer rifle...
