Hi. I'm a 20 year veteran LEO, sniper and hunter. My primary passion is backcountry muzzleloader hunting. Each year I try to find a new project and and experiment with my rifles.
Currently, I'm "building" a T/C Thunderhawk .54 to shoot No Excuses 485gr. I've added a custom muzzle brake, converted the 209 ignition system to accept Variflame adapters and added a handmade picatinny rail for optics and/or Revic rear peep. This gun will shoot 90-100gr of Alliant/Shooters World MZ Black and a lubricated felt wad under the NE slugs.
I own a CVA Optima NW for Idaho muzzleloader specific hunts. I shoot Powerbelts over the Alliant MZ Black, but I would like to find a lightweight lead conical (Idaho legal) that meets the bullet weight restrictions set by CVA for this rifle.
I also purchased a new CVA LR-X which will have a Harrell's Precision 'sabot muzzlebrake' on it with optics (where legal) for general seasons. Shooting Parker Precision 275gr Ballistic Extreme, Harvester Crush Rib Sabot, and BH209.
In my future is a traditional style muzzy for Montana hunts, but I'm not sure where to start on that project as of yet.....
