Every man should have a supply of anchors handy. Danforth or CQR plows with a lot of chain. I prefer the plows for soft substrate.


I am..........disturbed.

Not quite true, as Harry Pope and Dr. Franklin Mann and many other fine Schuetzen shooters of the late 1800s loaded their breech-loading rifles with a plugged case in the chamber and then used a false muzzle to push the bullet down the bore to be just above the case.

Some records at 200-yards, set over 100-years ago, remain unbeaten. The purpose was to pre-engrave the slug into the rifling, but eliminate any fins or flash (from the bullet base) that could occur as a bullet is pushed into the bore.

I do agree in principle that they are not true muzzleloaders.


All of my MZL'drs will shoot into ONE ragged hole ALL day long ... it's just those darn 2nd & 3rd+ shots that tend to open up my groups!

It is better to be judged by 12 than to be carried by 6.
