    Shooting form question?

    Velocities are higher 500FPS higher or more with MZL compared to the fastest sabot slugs, but when they build a bench at the bottom of my tree and parade a deer in front of it, I will zero off the bench. My own personal observation is hunting and bench shooting have about ZERO in common with...

    Shooting form question?

    Any of you who zero your gun without holding the forearm like you would hunting, ever miss low? There is a reason for that. It is a HUGE deal when shotgun slug hunting.

    T/C Encore 7mm

    I was hoping to find a used one, thanks for the leads, I will have to register WalkingEagle, that may work out pretty well with the exchange rate.

    T/C Encore 7mm

    Does anyone have a line on a 7mm Mag barrel for a T/C Encore? Preferably stainless, it is going to make the perfect Christmas present for a friend of mine.

    Do you read in your deestand ?

    Even if I dont get one I usually come home in a better mood than I was in the day before, so the wife sometimes will TELL me to go hunt something, she has never, not let me go.

    Do you read in your deestand ?

    As a person who still hunts on the ground, I have never read, but I do reflect A LOT, on the beauty of the location, the sounds of the deer woods on a calm day, things I ave done in my life good and bad, my career in the AF, past relationships and what went wrong with them and what I could have...

    zero distance

    For the Record I measured 2 of my (3 pellets=100gr eq) Firestar pellets and I got 24.3 and 24.7 So due to them being marketed as *gr eq pellets, T7, White Hots, or Firestar pellets are not going to scale the same. To be honest it was the first time I had put a pellet on a scale.

    zero distance

    We start talking 5 pellets are safe, referring to FS's, and some new guy puts 5 50gr T7 pellets in........you see where I am going...

    zero distance

    Hodgdon web page states the Firestars are 50 cal and 33 gr eq, not sure why your scale shows 24.3. As far as post just stating a # of pellets is not smart, first we can't just assume we are talking 50 cal, second T7 have come in 30,50 and now 60 gr eq to accommodate just about any charge, but to...

    swabbing between shots

    Having never hunted from a tree stand, I found that when sighting in and while hunting, to use the same process of 2/3 spit patches and one dry between all shots. I can see how this would not be practical in a tree stand. Since follow up shots are very slim. I will, if I need to, do 2/3 spit / 1...

    Laser bore sighters for ML’s anybody.

    I have the in the bore type, I only use them on new or different scope/rifle combos. As far as red or green, the red works fine for me but I just sight down the hallway and put the dot about 2" low. The first shot is usually within 2-3 clicks L/R and maybe 6-7 clicks U/D depending on range...

    Huntsman breech plug

    I have an unused 7/8 Metrics Unlimited I ordered last fall, I need a 5/8. I ordered the wrong one due to losing the tool and not being able to verify, once I make a wrench I realized I ordered the wrong one. So if the OP can use that one, or if somebody wants to trade.

    New guy here.

    Thank you all, when get used to having to use a 12ga Slug gun, and having to get almost as close as a bow, a 50 cal inline is like getting a single shot sniper rifle...lol. Now I live in Nebraska and use a AR10 for rifle season, and the little NEF for the Dec muzzle loader season, in places in...

    New guy here.

    I grew up in and came home (on Leave from the AF) to Illinois to hunt, where it is a 12-20 gauge slug state, I figured inline muzzle loading would actually have better range, that's how I started. I retired from the AF and my dad has passed, and we live in Nebraska, the hunting is amazing we...
