I recently retired from the military after 25 years and primarily use my muzzleloaders for hunting with the occasional contest among friends. Although I am new to the board I am not new to muzzle loading in general. I received my first muzzleloader (in a kit) as a Christmas present when I was 14. I spent a lot of time with my Dads help working on that kit to have it ready for the next hunting season. Over the years I have used different types of ignition systems with the inline but I still fall back on my trusty Hawken and have taken three deer so far this season with it. Sometimes simple works best.
I look forward to learning from the wealth of knowledge and experience available on this forum.
