    Chamber Casting

    People do it all the time and I guess I can't say I've heard of casting shrinkage. Someone will be along to tell you how to do it right.

    .25 Creed! But Why?

    Time for my soapbox. Where the hell is a .296, thats the missing cat? Come on man, somebodies gotta fill in that missing .284-.308 gap. Huh?

    Sensitivity is not supposed to be part of Hockey discussions.

    Anyone shooting a Traditions Vortek Striker Fire VAPR

    Fury test bullets showed up. .502 was hard to push down but easy compared to the Barnes. 4 shot 2" group. Probably all the better I'm getting. Time to order some and put the 1 power scope back on practice a bunch. Probably start shooting at deer targets. 310 gr star bullets

    Waterproofing a tent

    I was told or recommended to use Thompson water seal as well. Arctic Sateen cloth. Not flame proof though.

    Back to the range tonight with a three test packs of Thor's. 502 was tight enough but group was 4". Had some Barnes mz 250 with black sabbots. Damn hard to get those down the bore. Managed a 2" 3 shot group. Best so far. Both bullets shot with 85 gr 777 fffg. Have some Fury bullets on the way...

    Tried some Hornady 250 monos and loose 777. Nope. I have got a test set of Thor's coming. Maybe that will be the ticket? I have not mentioned yet that this rifle has the nicest trigger of any muzzle loader I have shot before. Got that going for it.

    Anyone shooting a Traditions Vortek Striker Fire VAPR

    Earlier I was doing better with a peep and fiber optic front but as I age, a scope is more important. You can work your loads up with a mutli power scope and then switch back to the one power once you know your load. My shooting today was not very impressive. All combinations basically gave me a...

    Bozeman protest

    About two months before the election, I switched my stocks to safe money market stuff. Stock market kept going up. After Friday, I'm thinking that maybe I was right. Before you jump my stuff, I did not vote for either of the leading clown choices. In my opinion, congress has brought us to this...

    Anyone shooting a Traditions Vortek Striker Fire VAPR

    So, you folks have not shot one? Just giving me good advice. Thanks. I have shot muzzleloaders off and on for 40 yrs. I started with all black. I know you can start low and keep increasing powder until the muzzleloader is cracking more like a center fire rifle sounds. This one is really...

    Anyone shooting a Traditions Vortek Striker Fire VAPR

    Got the rifle, seems ok. Cleaned it, put the one power scope on. Thats all that is legal. Went to the range. Now according to a You tube I checked out, three white hot pellets behind a 290 Bore driver was the most accurate load. When the gun went off the first time, I was almost in shock at the...

    Corner Crossing latest

    I think that would be very unwise and probably pretty darn expensive. Probably a federal violation.
