Is that a Konus scope?

We have a big hog problem here in Montgomery Co. Texas. This big girl was taken only a 1/2 mile away from some fabulous homes in Bender’s Landing Estates. Can you say pulled pork, sausage, and back strap? CVA Accura MR, 100gr Blackhorn. 250gr sabot Hornady FTX, 70yds. Slow Glow Hunting Light.

x2 for the Accura MR.

I went back to the bench and conducted the volume/weight procedure TWO more times. The first test was performed using the CVA Trophy Measure and the second test was performed with a T/C See Thru Measure. I weighed 10 charges for volumes of 80 grains through 120 grains in 10 grain volume...

HC, Well said, sir.

i have to agree on the cost differential being in favor of 777. On Powder Valley's website, 2F or 3F triple 7 cost only $19.95/#. BH209 is $31.95 for 10 ozs... that'a a big spread and equates to lot of shooting. So why the cleanup differential? Is 777 water cleanup? I understand BH209...

I recently purchased a CVA Accura Mountain Rifle as my first muzzle loader. Note that I said first... :) I am currently using IMR White Hots to get use to the loading and cleaning process with the intention to move to loose powder after I have used all of my pellets. I am a center-fire...

Nice shooting!

Long time center-fire rifle guy branching out into the world of in-line muzzle loading. I am looking forward to learning as much as I can from this experienced group. GerryS
