It could use musket caps as well, but mostly likely #11 caps are what it needs. +1 on staying away from black powder, it's corrosive, unlike pyrodex. I would use .490 round balls and pre lubed patches, you'll need a bullet starter to get them down as they start way harder then the new guns do. Use BOILING soapy water to clean it, take the nipple off, and stick the barrel in the boiling water and use a moist patch to draw the water up into the barrel like a syringe and push it in and out. The reason it needs to be BOILING and not just hot is that it will evaporate off when you get done and not rust. I run a little film of bore butter down the barrel before I store it. Always shoot a cap through it before loading as well. Don't try to shoot bullets out of it, it most likely has a 1 in 48 twist and will only stabilize round balls, also a roundball is more then sufficient for a pig.

Can't beat Clay's work!

That's a big a$$ fork...

Best gps made IMO. I've got the T. But I have landownership chips for every state I hunt, and they have all the topi built in and it overrides the garmin one. I was skeptical of the touch screen but I've had mine for 4 years and its been really tuff, no problems. It does like batteries, that's my only complaint. I was gonna buy a new Montana 650, but its way to big, won't fit in a pocket or GPS pouch, so I knew it would get lost right away.

awful.

I think that's a ruddy duck. Either way, congrats to him on his first duck!

I'd say thats more of an "unlucky" bobcat!

Awesome video!!! I almost burned my pts on a 4th season tag this year, wish I woulda!!!

Errr $800???

WOW!!! One of the most beautiful deer/mounts I've ever seen!

I think you're doing pretty good on that one, I always appreciate to have processors err on the side of being to picky and getting less meat. I'd rather have 108 pounds of good meat that you can give to non hunters without fear of them getting gamey or dirty pieces then 140 pounds of questionable meat. I'm picky as heck when I do my own processing, but I've rarely gotten over 100 pound of meat of a mature bull, let alone a small bull. I'd rather just shoot another elk or a few more deer if I need more meat, it's a good problem to have!!!

Kimber Ascent, it's only available in non magnum calibers, but they do make it in the 280 ackley improved. I think it weighs in at 4.5 pounds.

try Home Depot.... not in the store, but out in the parking lot. Should be able to pick one up for $5-$6 an hour.

What unit? Headed out there for first muzzleloader hunt. PM me if you don't want to share it on the WWW. NM can be tough, I've always found that the elk rut is way more predictable and strong in AZ, at least compared to the part of NM I hunt.

I think everyone is short changing you, I'd say 335-340. "Short Beams"? If there's one thing he has it's beam length in my opinion.

I think I have pics of that bull from last year

Did you get an antelope Shrek? Did you use that decoy at all?

I shot six of them this weekend in ND

Good luck! I've got the Feb muzzleloader hunt this year! I wanna see some pics!!!!

They'll be long done by thursday

I would look into colorado OTC hunts or a landowner cow tag in NM, they can be had for a couple hundred bucks. You'll spend more in gas going back in forth up to the verde valley multiple times then it'll take to just drive out to NM and smoke a cow. That being said, they do kill a few elk on those hunts, but I think it's a tough hunt.

I really like a tripod with locking levers on the legs instead of the twist deals, always seems like I'm in such a hurry when I take it down I guess!

310-325? I'm probably off, just wanted to wager a guess and see if I'm at all close, I love "guess the score" games!!!! Looks like a young bull to me with sweet tops, gonna be a toad a couple years!!

ugh.... to late again!!!!!

BOOM!!!!!
