    Black Powder Moose hunt

    A higher powder charge would have screwed you more than anything. You used a deer bullet on a moose. Way to light of a powerbelt for moose.

    I'd personally look into Thor bullets.

    CVA Accura MR-X Cluster Fudge

    The thors are great bullets. You only want them to lightly engage the rifling. Anymore, and you'll have a terrible time loading. Copper is soft, but not as soft and forgiving as lead.

    CVA Accura MR-X Cluster Fudge

    As we all know, I am a big fan of CVA guns since a young age. I had a customer come to me and ask me to get him set up for a solid 200 yard rig for NM elk. Well I picked out the paramount, but he was later talked into buying the CVA Accura MR-X .45cal.. Ok cool! not a big deal. Boy was I wrong...

    CVA optima groups - good? Bad? Ok?

    Its weird, because with #11 caps and T7/American pioneer, I always had a reverse crud ring about 4" down the MUZZLE.

    Traditional muzzleloader...cleaning between shots?

    shoot i'd have no trouble shooting elk at 200 yards with that load. With a round ball, my limit is 150 yards.

    —Muzzleloader reliability— actually going bang

    ok so this isnt exactly going to help you with your issue, but will give you an idea of how accurate these rifles can be, even with open sights.

    —Muzzleloader reliability— actually going bang

    ok rws caps are great. If you are cleaning between shots, you could just be soaking the breech plug and that area just isnt drying when you dry swab the bore/fire a cap. One thing you can try is pushing a dry patch down the bore, ramrod and all, Fire a cap and see how that patch looks. If its...

    —Muzzleloader reliability— actually going bang

    Yes real black sets off at 325ish degrees VS 800 for the pyrodex/T7. Not everyone shoots subs. Black powder requires an explosives license and special storage, which makes finding it in stores, difficult. But, its truly easier to ignite. Seeing how its a musket cap set up and T7... Any chance...

    CVA optima groups - good? Bad? Ok?

    Looks like a 1" bullseye to me. Compare the bullet hole to the center bullseye.

    Use real black powder.

    Traditional muzzleloader...cleaning between shots?

    8 dry patches? good grief! 2 or 3 max in my guns when swabbing between shots. You just need a damp patch, but soaking wet.

    Testing an OLD patch lube! Lube103

    Testing some of that old Lube 103 patch lube. I let the bag sit in the sun for an hour to melt the lube since its almost as old as me. Now the .015" patches are a little on the thin side for my bore. I normally run .020" patches. The first clean patch I recovered had just the slightest hole on...
