Totally agree. I will hand load metallic center fire rounds and work up a great shooting hunting rifle. Some of the steps folks go thru to get to that gnats ass of accuracy has me SMH. Well, each to their own. I won’t chase that rabbit.A
I’m new to this website and there’s a lot of people I’ve noticed that do a lot of “critical thinking” both in gear and procedure..... just load the gun and shoot you’ll be fine. The most inaccurate modern muzzleloader shoots better than a 300-year-old flintlock. And I believe there’s a whole lot of game that was taken by those guns in their time.
Nothing wrong with trying to be as accurate as possible but there’s a limit. If I had checked out this website before I started muzzleloader hunting I might have thought it too much to even bother with.
Get your setup right and just enjoy. I also shoot crossbow and I’m also on a crossbow hunting forum and good God those.....people it’s unbelievable the lengths people go to to make crossbow hunting mentally inaccessible for the masses. Not purposely but the end result is sometimes there’s too much fiddling and too little music.
I stopped here with my smoke pole development and some would find this unacceptable. Yes, 100 yards.
