Smokepole Black powder fans

Anyone try and using the 777? Like to switch to that if worth a hoot.

777 is better than black powder or pyrodex. But blackhorn 209 is where it's at. Burns clean and consistent

Everyone he ain't kiddin The Man knows what he is talkin about

The variance will shows the blackhorn is more consistant for these loads. This is load data is for ACCURA v2 27"barell
Blackhorn cleans a alot easier as well. I like the barnes tmz but my gun likes the hornadys a little more . The variance it gets with the Tmz is24 fps not as consistant of a load. The TMZ picks up more velocity as well around 30more across the board.

The F.P.E. is the foot pounds of energy

Looks like I got alot to learn with all the new stuff. But dont look like I will be muzzy hunting again this year.
Someday I need to get updated I guess.

Dad said he switched to the sabot with Hornady XTP bullets. I use the XTP for reloading. Really liking these FTX.

I used to be that way using muzzy during gun season even.
But since I got the .444 marlin. The muzzy is muzzy season only now and I never need it in Jan.

Dad used his muzzy all week during gun season. But after he shot the 444. he maybe looking for a 444 or 45-70 for gun next.

I have a marlin 1894cs in 357 got a peep sight on it also a old 336 in 35 rem that I use off and on during rifle as well as a savage 110 30-06 most of the time I got the smokepole crazy I know can't get enough of it.

Ohio is stuck with straight walled for rifles and then shotguns during gun season. List we can use something in straight walled now.

I got last year the new Remington 700 UML in the laminated stock. Currently shooting Remington's Labeled saboted Barnes bullet with 47.5g of Hodgdon 4198. Planning on experimenting with the Barnes Boatails this summer and bump up the accuracy.

 

[Cobby08]

It has a Burris fullfield II 3-9x40 scope on it now just no pictures.

I'd like to see updates on accuracy I'm liking that muzzleloader.

I'll try to remember to report back. My eyelet stripped out so I said hell with it and sent it back for a new stock. As soon as it's back I'll be shooting again.

I have an NEF Huntsman, a .50 cal built on the shotgun frame. I shoot 70 grains Triple 7 with a 250 grain Lee REAL bullet that I cast. Sighting equipment is OEM front sight with Williams aperture rear sight. We had our first muzzleloader weekend just now. I went all day yesterday, only thing I saw was a doe that ran through the woods behind me around 2:30. Way too hot for the deer to move like I needed them to, I was actually sweating at one point. Today, me and my best friend put up some climbers and two feeders for next month's rifle season. We filled the feeders with corn and dry molasses and set a trail camera near one of them, hopefully start getting more traffic soon.
