Mauser hunter . Do you remember the topic , some time ago , concerning the fella who was looking for an 800 yard muzzleloader . Wakeman and swampan were both in that one together as I recall . Also I think that was the one where swampman got us all going with his recommendation for 60 grains of powder behind a .520 patched round ball as a 50 cal load for elk

You just have to be able to shoot. I guess you girls should take lessons.

Cap.....I'm well aware. The post that BigBlock posted is from a link I posted on his forum. We all had a good laugh over it.
I know about Toby too. He might be more of a phony than Randy.
Do these guys think we don't remember what they've said in the past?

Money can't buy you happiness, but it can buy you a hunting license and that's pretty close.

I would agree that Powerbelts are junk.....look at the brand on them. This Wakeman guy really seems to know his stuff. The hobby needs more like him.

when shots were 30-50 yards that load would work. Wont happen these days unless they are tame elk behind high fences.

You have to be a hunter and not just a shooter. They are killed with stickbows all the time at less than 20 yards.

Changing the subject will not change the facts. It's a common but poor debate tactic normally used by those that are losing. I see it here often.

Of all that post here you are the least knowledgeable (no small feat) and add the least. Admit I'm right and move along.

No because of everything you say and don't say. Well, more than one of us has proved you full of crap. I doubt anybody takes you seriously anymore. The only positive thing I can say about you is you're a 1st class troll. You do it well. Congrats.
