    I wonder ??????

    I have never shot the Federal Bore Lock 270 Trophy Copper Bullet. I have seen mostly good reports about this bullet. I often wondered why they never made this bullet in 350 grain like they do their lead edition. I often wondered how a 350 gr copper in that design would fly. I bet it would be a...

    Maryland Yute Day

    We had some good luck this morning on Maryland’s Youth Spring Turkey Hunt. I took my buddy and his on out for his son’s first bird. He killed his bird 15 yards from the blind at 9:30. It was windy howling morning but still had a few gobblers moving. Great morning, great time, great memories.

    Tapping for Oversized Nipple

    I bought a TC White Mountain Carbine off a guy about 3 years back. Everything looked good and solid with the gun. The gun has some standard wear on the barrel and stock. The 1-20'' twist bore was a little rough when I bought it. I polished the bore up some. It looks a lot better but not great...

    Has anyone seen these?

    Just now seeing the Green Premier Accutips for Muzzleloading. I used to use them in my 20 gauge slug gun. They were very accurate and performed well on deer. https://www.americanhunter.org/content/new-for-2024-remington-premier-accutip-mz/

    Cost Per Charge

    I did some rough math on what it is costing me per shot for ''just the powders'' on my various muzzleloaders based on current prices. *My smokeless muzzleloader costs me about .39 cents per shot. (16 oz bottle at $45. 116-60 weighed grain loads per bottle) *My Swiss real black powder costs...

    First Day Luck

    Today was the first day I got a chance to go bowhunting this year. I got lucky in the second half of the day when this guy came limping by. Shot him at 33 yards. Heard him crash after an 80 yard sprint. Not sure what was causing his limp. He has no signs of any previous injuries.

    A Bear with my Bison

    Was able to connect on this little sow today during the opening day of Maryland’s black bear season. I ended up using my White, Bison, .54 cal with 553 gr conicals. I got the conicals from fellow member Flounder some years back. They worked superbly. No tracking job whatsoever. It was a good...

    Colorado Success

    Got lucky on the fifth day of my Colorado muzzleloader hunt. Could not be happier. Was finally able to full fill a dream of taking a nice bull with one of my sidelocks.

    Encore Lug Replacement?

    Does anyone know where I can get an Encore lug removed and a new one welded back on? The barrel is a Bergara .300 Win Mag. I spoke with Bergara. They stopped producing Encore barrels back in 2015. They will only refund the barrel with original sales receipt which I do not have. I am more...

    Finally Found One

    I have been looking for a Ruger made Marlin 1895 SBL for several years now. Always a day late and a dollar short. Refused to pay inflated crazy auction prices at on line gun sites. Got a call yesterday afternoon from the Gettysburg Trading Post that they had a brand new one showed up. Asked me...

    Encore DIY Trigger Job

    I ordered a trigger spring kit from M Carbo for one of my Encore frames. Cost was $29.95.. I could not be happier with the results. There is a step by step video you can watch before and while doing the take down and assembly. It was much easier than I had anticipated. My trigger pull is now...
