Shot this one this morning for a little friendly competition;
Frontier .50 cal
50 grains Triple 7 2f powder
.490 patched lead ball
Had to be 25 yds off hand to qualify. 1 shot at each 1.5" bullseye. No do-overs.
11F this morning at the range, zero wind though which is why I went early. Tough one for sure.

Took my full stock to the range today along with a pistol. Full Stock had issues. Found a load for the pistol but my rifle needs attention

Just one cap Forty. Never saw the hole until l was cleaning the rifle. The water was really spraying around. I then noticed the art work on the barrel. I was shooting of a bench trying to hit a Buffalo steel target at 100 yards. Had 80 grains in her. But the gun was shooting even lower than it had been because I was spanking steel swingers at 50 yards no problem. Im thinking I was losing quite a bit of pressure out of that hole.

Never saw anything like that, RR. Factory defect, maybe? Hope Pedersoli can help you.

RR, is that target from the Candian Muzzleloaders or the US muzzleloaders? Can you get copies made? I wouldlove to try my hand. By the way, that is purty darn fine shooting.
