    I’ll definitely be picking up one of those if I buy a CVA. That’s pretty slick.

    Muzzleloader Noobie Questions

    Idk if it’s worth messing with but I do have a Knight LK-93 I believe. Don’t quote me on that model but it’s the one that you make safe by threading the back of the bolt in till it won’t fire if that make sense. Should I even mess with it?

    Muzzleloader Noobie Questions

    Yeah it would be great if I could purchase two but the wife is only giving the blessing for one. So I want to buy one good one. Was looking at the MR-X’s but thought I’d get some opinions. It’s a good possibility that I only run irons here as well. The shots in the north Georgia mountains are...

    Muzzleloader Noobie Questions

    One last question. How do I know what rifles can shoot the BH209? I’m a little confused on that. The rest of the substitutes are good in any rifle right?

    Muzzleloader Noobie Questions

    Ok. I typically don’t worry about taking it off my rifles when we are hunting in weather either. The regs in my state are pretty relaxed honestly. It’s just making sure I meet the regs of the west. Are there places where inline isn’t legal? Never even heard of a CO2 bullet remover but I’ll...

    Muzzleloader Noobie Questions

    The spitfires are definitely on the top of my list to try out. I’m a huge Barnes fan. Are you doing anything specifically to reduce moisture while hunting with it?

    Ok I’ll check that out. Thank you. Yeah as a reloader, I was blown away at $90 for not even a full pound of powder…. I did manage to find a container of it though.

    Muzzleloader Noobie Questions

    Hey guys. Hoping to reach out for some insight as I purchase my first muzzleloader. A little background, I’m a Georgia resident that can take advantage of some early season deer hunts with the plans of going out west for elk, deer, etc. I go west for elk every year with a rifle but hoping for...

    Load Development ?'s (Noob thread)

    There is definitely something to be said about that link to the “painless load development”. It’s a really good read. When I got into reloading, I thought I needed to do all the hocus pocus and rain dances but quickly realized I could cut out most of that and still shoot small groups. For me the...

    Load Development ?'s (Noob thread)

    I just finished a 6.5 PRC build and started load development myself. In love with the cartridge so far. I’m working with the 127 LRX and 130 CX. Just finished the ladder test with H1000 and found some good potential loads. Gonna load up the nodes and get to the range soon to see how it goes.

    Load Development ?'s (Noob thread)

    1. Typically, you would load them in .3-.5 grain increments. Yes, shoot all the way up to max unless pressure sign in recognized. It's not uncommon to come across two different "nodes" within the same ladder tests. If you stop shooting after the first node, you could be missing out on a node at...

    How many hunting rifles do you have?

    Beware of the one rifle man..... I am very much a minimalist. I have two Aero Solus rifles. Almost identical in every way. One in 6.5 Creedmoor for varmints up to medium thin-skinned game. And another in 6.5 PRC for big game such as elk. (I understand that this is a controversial choice but not...

    Been running Hornady since Hornady started making them. The first gen one, I had for prob 5-6 years. The buttons started acting up on it. Called Hornady and they replaced it with the new generation for free. It’s been great so far. Prob had it a few years or so. Most companies are making a...

    3 rifles inherited... need some folks to bounce ideas off of.

    Yeah that’s not a bad idea either. It’s really about preference. For me, I want me gear to be as light as I can afford. Allows me to stay out longer and go further. The first year I went, I took a M77 boat anchor in 338 WM. Love that rifle but hated it by mile 5 of the 13 we did the first day...
