What Muzzleloader are hunting with this year?

[jims]

The top ML is a Savage MLII with a Brux .45 barrel in 1 in 28 twist. It is for my daughters, using 195 grain Barnes with the Harvester light blue sabots. SSS trigger. Devin Sinner did the barrel work etc.
The bottom is a .45 on a Ruger No. 1 with a Douglas barrel by SMI. It shoots a 230 grain Fury bonded bullet in a Harvester light blue sabot.
The Savage shoots a lighter load than the Ruger. I will shoot the Ruger No. 1.

None, where I live, you can only hunt with archery, a few places shotgun and a few places muzzleloader, you have to apply for a 1 week controlled hunt, that some places allow muzzleloader n some places allow shotgun, I'm in the muzzleloader area, and wasn't successful in the draw, I can archery tho

First up is my laminate stocked TC Hawken. She needs blooding.
Then my TC Firehawk. My best rifle EVER.
And, for the flintlock season after Christmas, my custom flintlock shimmel ( barn gun).
.50's all.

I will be using the same NEF Huntsman I have been using since I bought it new in 2005. Have thought about buying another muzzleloader but just haven't pulled the trigger on that idea yet. Maybe someday, but the Huntsman is still knocking them down.

Loyalty is a wonderful thing

As regards the No. 1. Recently sold a Lyman Centennial Ruger No. 1 in 45-70 with great factory wood. Less than what a standard No. 1 goes for anymore. Off subject I know.

What’s a good out of state (I’m from NJ) with a solid (if not early) Muzzleloader season? Looking to do a hunt next year.

PA has a early ML season. It starts next weekend for us but it’s only for one week. If you can find a place in Bucks County that’s where I would go.

 

[teambuffalooutdoors]

That’s pre-rut hunting! I’m familiar with their flintlock season. Are Inlines allowed for this early season Muzzleloader in PA?

 

[edmehlig]

Yes they are

 

[Muggles]

Virginia has a dedicated two week season as well the first couple weeks of November generally covers a good portion of the rut. Flintlocks to Smokeless.

I will be hunting with a 62Cal Faeton Underhammer.

 

[iablackpowder]

I will be using my go to Knight LRH 50cal.

 

[dirtsailor2003]

For both Elk and deer I’ll be using my Optima V2 northwest edition. Been sighting in with Thor 297grain hollow points with 80 grains of T7.

To many in my safe for them all to make an appearance. The scoped MK-85 is always my primary. The laminate MK-85 above it needs to get out to. Really want to get a deer with my Renegade and a roundball. To many options and not enough time. We'll see how the mood hits me when the season finally opens.
