The 1st deer I ever took with a Muzzleloaded was with a 45 cal. hatfield, big button buck at 63 paces, droped it, thru the smoke I saw a hind leg kick and it was done. used the 440 lead ball thru the lungs, a huge hole on the off side, deer went down as fast or faster than if I used a 06! wish I still had that gun beside looking Great it shot cloverleaves at 50yrds! live & learn!
