Best part zero recoil for the kids

Sweet! I’ll bet the recoil is light - that’s a very light bullet. Pic of the rifle?

I have no qualms with it for whitetail.

Wonder if I could get more out of it with n110

More? Not much I’d say but you could use a lot less N110. How much N120? 55 gr or so?

 

[ElDiablito]

I’ve got a G3 on order.

I’ve got a G3 on order.

It took 7 months for mine
I was tore up about the 22 inch barrel but it handles nice.

I used the savage loads it hated 57-60. 61.5 easy primer extraction


I'm going to order some n110 20 grains less sounds good

I have had my eyes on them for the last two years. I think thing winter ill pull the trigger on ordering one. I have a Remington UML and I love it but she is a heavy beast when it comes to using it for late season tracking and deer drives. I love the color pattern on yours. Sweet looking gun.

Those Woodsmans look pretty sweet - am I reading this correctly, that they're rated for smokeless powder?

Yes

I just ordered a .45 carbine today. I’m tempted to go with a Northwoods version though with the 20” barrel, but I’m not sure the twist rate those barrels have.

I’ll also be aiming to try CE bullets so it’s promising seeing yours shoot so fantastic.

If anyone else I looking to grab one, it’s worth noting that starting Jan. 1, you can no longer backorder, but just need to buy them as they come in stock.

I went with a 50 due to Colorado restrictions and we try to muzzleloader hunt there as well.

It shot the scorpion pt gold 260 to the same POI as well at 100 4 inches lower at 150.

Just a heads up the G2 50cal woodman are not smokeless rated, I believe the g2 .45 are with upgraded breech plug. I know the G3 45cal are rated for smokeless, not sure on the g3 50. I shoot BH209 in my G3 45 and its great

Yes I believe the .50s technically haven’t been sml rated till the G3. All .45 Patriots always have been.

 

[Jmort1754]

The G3 50 is smokeless rated. The previous iterations were not. It is why I went with the G3. Infinitely cheaper to shoot than the blackhorn rated guns.
