And again...

[Confederate rifleman]

Met Ed M at Dixon's 'tuther day. Fine fellow btw.
Got there a bit early, and went a lookin'.. BIG mistake as I didn't leave my debit card at home...
Picked up a VERY nice .50 Renegade flinter, of roughly the same vintage as the .54 caplock I got the other day. Not as good a deal, typical for what such goes for 'round here.
She doesn't seem to have seen much use, I seem to have a nose for such, and has a perfect bore. The lock is nice and tight and sparks very well.
While I like my Pennsylvania Hunter just fine, she's a ball rifle. The Renegade is more versatile with her shallow groove 1-48 barrel. I do intend to explore the possibilities in greater detail...
So. I have a few TCs. They are rather promiscuous...
Omega Z5 .50
Thunderhawk .50
Firehawk .50
Pennsylvania Hunter. 50 ( flintlock)
Laminate Hawken .50 ( percussion)
Renegade .54 ( percussion)
Renegade. 50 ( flint)
I think a 12 step program is needed.

We're here to help you brother. You should send me all of those sinful muzzleloaders. I'll take care of them for you. Lol

 

[Confederate rifleman]

What kind of friend would I be? To burden you with such an affliction would be cruel...

Yea maybe someone will intervene with another ml to help with your addiction.

Well, I count seven. You only need five more to properly complete a 12 step program.

(As I sit here with 19 frontstuffers lined up on the wall of my man cave.)

Hi I'm Bruce and I'm a muzzleloader. it's been 2 days since I bought my last Caprock. I too have to quit OR buy a new safe

I went to a gun show yesterday, and I was appalled by the prices. I did find some Winchester #11 Magnum primers that a former friend had for sale for $25/100. I'm not that desperate yet. I did find a pair of sunglasses.

Our lovely governor and our mayor outlawed the use of state and city properties for gun shows. Hopefully, we can fix that in November.

Mark, it was great to finally meet you in person as well. You sure did step into it again with that Flintlock Renegade! I wished TC made one in a left-handed version. SIGH

However, I was glad I was there and was able to purchase the last box of Schuetzen Musket caps that Dixon's had in stock. When I asked about RWS caps both #11 and Musket caps, they said "They have no idea as right now RWS that manufactures them in Germany are concentrating their efforts in making primers, etc for the Ukraine military. " So that being said, God knows when we will ever see RWS caps on the shelves again.

I could also be persuaded to help lighten your load of ML, just let me know when/where. I'm sure my wife wouldn't mind!!

 

[UndeadPoet]

Q: How many muzzleloaders is “enough?”
A: One more than you currently have at the time you are asking yourself the question. Rinse and repeat…

mic drops…

 

[barbatotony]

I am not certain that the concept of enough, actually, is applicable to Muzzleloaders, Fishing Tackle, Beer, or Star Wars Sequels?

 

[babstooge]

muzzleloaders are like Lay's potato chips ya can't have just one

 

[Confederate rifleman]

Yeah, but I have 7!
Woe is me! This one's a shooter too. 3 shot groups at 50 yards are a very consistent 1 1/4 inch. 70 grains 3f Swiss, a 45 caliber 250 grain XTP in a Harvester crush rib. The bore is TIGHT. Her lock is also FAST.
Good rifle.
Now, if I can only get my Pennsylvania Hunter flintlock to shoot like this...

 

[short_start]

You've got a good start. A few more wouldn't hurt.

I've got 15 TCs, and that doesn't count the Contenders.

 

[UndeadPoet]

Well, you boys are making me feel like I need to get on the stick, as I only have 10, and only three of those are T/Cs…

 

[phalanx]

I am afraid to admit how many I have, you'll might think I'm a hoarder! Lets just say two 14 gun safes and 2 9 gun cabinets filled to the brim, three two gun cases and numerous soft cases, each filled. I need a Muzzleloader Anonymous group!

 

[babstooge]

boy ,they come in waves. I had 1 then in 1 month I had 6 more. I belive if left in a dark secluded place ( a safe ) they will multiply and be fruitful.
