    209 / 209M primer question - new to muzzleloading

    Are your experiences with Blackhorn or 777. OP is using loose 777, and ignition with mild 209 is well assured.

    209 / 209M primer question - new to muzzleloading

    NO. Do not use magnum or “hot” primers with 777. Low power/muzzleloader branded 209 are best, burn much cleaner and reduce carbon fouling in breech.

    Wyoming Random Draw Is No More?

    The WY sheep & moose dream died pretty fast for me once I learned to read the statistics and learned to properly value my dollars and allocate better… I’ll tell you what though, it is NICE not to care about those draws. I reccomend EVERYONE who is not near max to pack it in. It ain’t happening...

    How to catch an untrapable mouse.

    I was once in an epic battle with a garden rat for months and months. I never did catch her but I sure as hell killed off her babies. One day I stopped seeing evidence of her. I can only dream that maybe I killed her via a broken heart! Persistence pays I guess. Another rat I caught in a live...

    Well....I've had enough

    Do elk cross large boulder fields

    Yes they will cross it. If you walk up through the boulders you can often find soft paths that come out of and connect across fingers of timber. I have seen a bull in broad daylight come out into a boulder field following my cow chirp. I missed him with my bow, wildly underestimating the...

    Wyo Special Apps are down in #’s

    Getting to that point already. I’ll be 50 in the nearish future. I make decent money but I’m not rich, by a mile. Enough in the checking account to pay the tax and credit card bills each month but not much more, and less disposable income than I had at 25 sometimes it seems. The special helps...

    FNG not from Wyoming

    Good evening. Another FNG. I have other-forum PTSD so just politely checking if I am allowed in here or if there’s a seperate entrance or something I should be using? Since, to be clear, I am not from Wyoming. Beyond that, I am a lifelong “mediocre” hunter that tries hard and succeeds less...
