    Taking powder into Canada

    Howdy, depending on where you intend on huntin, and what your point of entry is, 777, is fairly available. Where were you thinking of going? I’ve hunted and guided in Ontario, Alberta, Manitoba,Saskatchewa, Yukon and the NT. If you fly, it’s my understanding that entry is not a problem. Without...

    They also shoot great out of my Knight 50 with orange crush sabot. I tested them in a gravel bank. They expanded and for the most part held together. I was impressed

    Pedersoli Hawken Hunter

    Cap lock ignition failure

    it is an Investarms Hawken from the 80’s. I purchased it used last year. The fellow who had it said he switched to musket caps for increased reliability. He claimed no problems after that. I blasted it with carb cleaner, no failed ignition

    Cap lock ignition failure

    this is a great idea, I’ll have to try this. I was back at the range yesterday. I only had two failed ignition, same caps. I will try the RSW caps if I can find them in Canada. I had two other firearms there with ccI magnum, #11’s. No failures there. Thanks for all the great ideas and help.
