    Omega 6 Pointer

    I took out my .50 cal Omega again last night and took this buck a little before 5:00. It was a perfect shot but he still made a pretty good run and wound up in one of the nastiest greenbriar patches I've ever had to pull a deer through! The Load was two 50 grain 777 pellets under a 300 grain...

    Muzzleloader Doe

    I put down the bow and picked up the .50 cal Omega on Monday. Morning hunt was a bust. Nothing moving and temps around 10 degrees with a very light wind. I hunted a different stand in the afternoon. I had a line of 6 does followed by two spikes pass by me. The does were small and my trigger...

    Mounting a Lyman 57 SME on a Bison

    I'm looking at options to mount a peep sight on my Bison. The 57 SME is supposed to fit this gun. From the looks of it (I haven't ordered it yet) it mounts on the left side of the receiver. Is this right? If so, how? Anyone have pictures they can share? Thanks.

    Ultimate Firearms Black Widow

    Figured I'd throw this out there to see what you guys think. I have an opportunity to purchase a Black Widow in .50 cal. The gun has approx 40 rounds through it. It's fitted with a McMillan thumbhole stock, upgraded carbon fiber barrel, custom muzzle break, original ignition system as well as an...

    Muzzleloader Doe 01/08/2021

    It's been a very busy fall/winter for me and although I spent a few weeks hunting out of state I've hardly hunted New Jersey at all. I've just been too busy. Today I left work early, took care of a few things and found myself with a couple of daylight hours to spare. There are two standing...

    Bison Scope Mounts

    Earlier this year I picked up an unfired Bison. I'm trying to put a scope on it. I've always liked Leupold mounts and rings and when I looked the rifle up on their website it showed a part number and I placed the order. The mounts that came in the mail today are completely wrong. They're made...

    New DWB!

    So this is my first White. Bison .504. I actually found it here on the "whites for sale on other sites" It the one from Connecticut on the bottom of page 45 and the top of page 46. It is new and unfired. There was a little bit of surface rust on the thimble, which was easily remedied, but...

    Blackhorn 209 - Volume or Weight?

    Earlier this week I was working on a load for one of my guns. I measured out 120 grains into a few Blackhorn tubes. I shot those and than wanted to drop the load to about 110 grains. This time I weighed the loads out on my Lyman DPS powder scale. I figured 77 by weight should be 110 grains by...

    Need A Little Help!

    I picked up a NIB Savage 10ML-II a couple of weeks ago on Gunbroker. I researched all the recommend loads and settled on 42 grs of accurate 5744, MMP black sabots, 300 gr Hornady XTP (.452). I mounted a Leupold VX-31 scope in 3.5-10x40 on it. Bore sighted it than headed to the range to sight it...

    New Member From New Jersey

    I'm not new to muzzleloading but I am new to serious muzzleloading. I'm 55 years old and built a CVA .45 cal Kentucky rifle kit gun when I was 21. I hunted with it a few times but never got a deer. Then I got bit by the bowhunting bug and my hunting life has revolved around that ever since...
