    Awesome congrats. That's on my to do list. How accurate is that 50 hawken? 

    It's not bad. I don't shoot it a lot and was using some of his hand-cast maxi balls which, in this gun, are slightly less accurate than a patch and ball believe it or not. I was keeping it under 30 yards to be safe. I think with modern bullets and Pyrodex pellets you could get out to 70 and beyond with some practice. Then again, I'm no Davy Crockett. ;)

  2. The past couple years I've been trying to fill my javi tag using my late grandfather's .50 Hawken (CVA actually). This year it all came together finally. Used an 1858 New Army for the follow-up shot. Enjoy!

  3. It wasn't that long ago, another big outfitter got in bed with ranchers in AZ to push for landowner tags here in Arizona like they had successfully done in NM. I'm sure you all remember the USO fiasco. It didn't end, unfortunately.
