    Post Up Dem Black Friday Deals

    I have one - it has a hard time with 6.5 and 7mm bullets - a lot of blanks and then crazy speeds into 4000 FPS - normally around 3100 my 30 cal spot on

    WT Personal best for distance

    Nice job! It sounds like you were by yourself, which can definitely make things more challenging. Sometimes, sharing too much information can open up an ethical debate, but I appreciate the honesty. You practiced and at some point everyone shoots a deer beyond what they practiced. I’ve seen a professional shooter—someone who competes in intense courses with varying distances, running from one target to the next and demonstrating exceptional skill—miss an animal after going through a long setup for the shot. It just goes to show how unpredictable things can be, even for the pros.

    New to ML hunting

    Muzzleloading (ML) is a process I've refined over time. With each rifle I've used, I've learned something new. The ML I use now is my best shooting rifle, custom-made by Bestill Creations. I also have two other custom-built rifles. The best advice I can give is to always mark your ramrod and ensure 1000% that your rifle isn't already loaded—your life depends on it. Beyond the ramrod mark, it's all about trial and error. Different sabots will perform better than others, depending on your barrel. Even a few grains of powder can make a big difference in your shot grouping. Also, keep in mind that most states, including New Mexico, Utah, and Colorado, have "outlawed" power scopes on muzzleloaders. Depending on your hunting plans, you’ll need to consider this. I worry that Arizona may follow suit in the near future as well. Here are a few things I recommend, depending on your setup and approach: Arrowhead has a great website, and Luke provides a wealth of knowledge through his YouTube videos. Hanks Muzzleloader always has solid information, too. In terms of equipment, here are some essentials: Bullet sizer Loading press Quality scale (for measuring BH 209 by weight—not volume) Arrowhead LMRP primer holders Load-through funnel Cedar Mountain Quick Loader Quality cleaning supplies Hope this helps BH 209 is always hard to come by. When you find some, get an extra container. Another option to consider is a Thompson Center (used) then equip with a Match Grade Machine barrel / arrowhead breach plug, lighten the trigger and that would be a great 300 yd ML

    Camofire/Blackovis closed

    I have a different take on Camofire.- I thought it was a scam, poor return policy and I know people who work for businesses that sold (or provided) items to them and per the people I know- jack asses - I also noted anythig on sale I could find on Amazon for 1-3% more but way better return policy. What I did like is seeing things I have no use for but often thought about buying 😀

    Needing Blackhorn 209 High Performance Powder

    It says Blackhorn 209 - then high performance muzzleloading propellant on the container. @Arizona 79 as stated Scheels has some in Chandler - if you absolutely need one - I have 1-2, the price is $90 ea. Same price as the store - as I will need to replace.
