Muzzleloaders

Post by Arkbow »

Love my T/C pro hunter it allows me to switch barrels to shoot all year long;
Love the history behind muzzleloaders and plan to get into shooting the "old style" real soon;
Hunt hard, respect what you hunt and waste no meat;

Grizz, I enjoyed the Hershall House video, the man is a modern legend among traditional gun makers.
I have an old "foxfire" book with a long interview with Hershall. He was much younger then (we all were! :shock: ), but he was a master gunmaker at that early age!

BTW - TPM, my Hawken has brass trim that is well tarnished. I bought it used (the barrel was in very bad shape but the rest of the gun was sound) and left it dull looking so I wouldn't be afraid to get it dirty. :lol:
Bought it for $75, and found a Green Mountain barrel (21" fast twist for sabots) on closeout from Green Mountain for $100 - heck of a good rifle for $175. in my opinion!!
