    Bow range scope for dark canopy ideas

    This is correct. The statement that a 30mm tube steers more light than a 1” tube should go on the bin with all the other old gun store tales. Tube diameter has nothing to do with tube diameter. A 30mm tube DOES provide more elevation and windage adjustment. So 30mm tubes make a lot more...

    SOLD Bulls Bag shooting rest

    Bulls Bag shooting rest for sale. I don’t think it was ever used. A little dusty from sitting in a basement, but in like new condition. This bag is filled with a heavy fill, and looks to be a very solid shooting rest. This came to me in a package deal, and I simply don’t need another rest...

    Smokeless for newbies

    For the OP, I suggest taking advantage of end of season deals and buying a CVA Wolf, loose 777, 209 primer and projectiles. Go shoot this basic inline ML a few sessions. That will give you a good idea if you like ML’ers with a very modest cost. If you do, start researching smokeless...

    Bow range scope for dark canopy ideas

    I’m using the Vortex Diamondback 1.75-5x32 on my Wolf V2, which is my timber hunting muzzleloader. I have no issues with the scope during legal shooting light. Did the job this past Sunday. But, I’m starting to lean towards an illuminated reticle for this ML, and may switch to some mid tier...

    Smokeless Muzzleloader in the Rain???

    Electric tape or a latex finger cot over the muzzle and you should be hood to go. I cant imagine rain allowing enough water into the breech to render a 209 primer useless. I’ve hunted with 209 ML rifles and BH209 in the rain and they’ve always gone bang with expected performance and...

    Attaching a ramrod keeper to a CVA Accura MR?

    Cost was free. CVA performed the repair under warranty.

    Omega revamp

    I totally agree with you. In areas where you must use BP/BP sub, just use those instead of smokeless. I thought I had found my BP powder of choice for the rest of my hunting days when I started using BH209. Now that I cannot stomach paying the massive BH209 price increase, I want a quality...

    I think this is going to be my first smokeless ML.

    Sighting in conundrum

    In the past when I’ve seen what you describe in a ML, I immediately pulled the scope and mounted it a centerfire rifle where I had a known accurate load handy. Then I shot a box test on the CF rifle. I like to use a lightweight .308 rifle, to generate sone recoil into the scope. If the...

    Blackhorn has went up again.

    At a certain point the benefits of BH209 aren’t worth the cost increase over 777 or true BP, and I’m at that point. I have a ML with a proven BH209 load that I will keep using. But for new ML I’m going to work up loads with an alternate powder.

    Fury bullet shipping delays?

    See my post above. I was in touch and the issue is resolved.

    Fury bullet shipping delays?

    I was able to get in touch with Dennis. Apparently my order had an unusual anomaly where the online merchant software did not forward the order to the shipping software. So my order was hanging in electronic limbo. Dennis will be shipping the order out asap.

    Fury bullet shipping delays?

    I ordered several types of Fury ML Universal Fit bullets back in mid June. My order still shows as “processing” and were in mid July. I’ve reached out to the company, and I hope to hear back soon about the status of my order. I was curious if anyone else has experienced this sort of...

    LabRadar data for BH209 with 300gr Hornady SST

    I forgot to update this - it wasn’t my Prostaff 5, it was the Durasight mount on my CVA. When I pulled the scope off I discovered the Durasight mount was loose, and when I removed it I could clearly see wear marks to show it had been shifting for a while. I replaced the Durasight with an EGW...
