Finished my hunting this year with a nice doe during shotgun season...and a 6 point buck last evening with the .54 caliber muzzle loader I built from kit.

It was snowing and blowing and cold too! Just about to call it a night when a party of four crossed in front of me (I was on the ladder heading down)...two bolted and two kept coming. At 60 yards they turned slightly...I only had one shot so I picked the biggest one and snapped the cap. He never took a step...dropped like a rock!




I was amazed how effectivce 100 grains of Pyrodex RS a 230 grain round lead ball can be (fired it up with a musket cap.)
