I agree, this Forum is about shooting, cleaning, and learning to get the most out of your Muzzle Loader. If people want to discuss Politics, Religion etc, then they should go to Forums that cater to those subjects. I've seen relationships between friends and family members where they get into fights, say things they regret later that causes them to split forever. And for what, did you change their minds? NO! So let's stick to what this forum is about and let us all share our knowledge experience etc. Remember what one member states what you should do may not be to your liking. So listen and pick and choose what works for you and in the end, we'll all be happy. As long as you get the results you are looking for is all that matters.
