    What muzzleloading stuff did you do today?

    Uh oh new white owner

    Sigh...You are lost. You will never again be able say "I don't need it" when seeing any other Whites for sale. Adding to gman57's comment about your addiction, 'there are no cures...only treatments" ;) Welcome!

    Gonic GA 93 .45 mag

    Slinging, it's been a little slow around here lately, don't give up. Plenty of helpful guys around here. I know very little about the Gonics, except they were supposed to be of quality comparable to the old Whites that some of us shoot. What is the twist rate of those? {You can check with a...

    Black Powder in Tenn or Alabama

    Black Powder in Tenn or Alabama

    Twist rates

    I dont know where you got the idea about a 1/20 twist being useless. A fast twist is considered better for heavy (long) bullets to stabilize the projectile. Slower twists up to about 48, will shoot conicals if they arent too heavy. Above 48 are generally considered round ball shooters. The 28...

    Saturdays take

My first ever shot at a game animal was with his single shot 20 gauge, rabbit hunting in the snow. I missed of course. He taught me to lead em a little when they were going...

    Thanks for posting these. Do you think my T7 3f estimate of 1500 fps is low, based on your results?
