Was just wondering who's been out playing with their blackpowder rifles or pistols? Been awhile for me. Been casting quite a few bullets...kind of makes up for it some.

Nope I haven't shot a BP gun in sometime. In fact BP season I never saw the first deer.I think the moon had allot to do with that.

Sounds good Frank. Need to get out myself...been slacking bad. Have a new bullet been meaning to run through my rifle before deer season and just haven't got it done yet. It's an old Lyman mold that drops a 550gr. wide flat point. Loaded up with 70grs. of Goex Cartridge, .030 wad and my lube. Here's a pic of it next to my favorite 535gr. Postell. Have a good story from some I gave to a guy at work. He was wanting to shoot them through a little short light 22" NEF. They walloped the $hit out of him. But...he wanted a smokeless load. Fixed him up. Told him it would thump him worse than the black but that's what he wanted. Told me the first shot that little rifle came up and hit him right between the horns. He didn't want to wuss out after one shot so he shot it again...second shot knocked him off the bucket he was sitting on. He then gave up and went to shooting them thru his Classic. Said he could shoot about 10rds. then. In my rifle they'll do fine at 13lbs.

Frank sounds like you been busy. You too quig's. I bought that cva kodiakl magnum end of last year shot it few times over the summer never got to shoot during ml season. I may use it this gun season some really wanted to get one with it. I may even leave the browning 7 mag at home just to use it

Got out last weekend and ran a few patched roundballs through the ole girl. Fired the ole revolver some too. Nice weather rolling around and I'll be getting out more.
