always remember 1st the powder then the lead. I've seen it happen more than once . lolTie a small piece of flagging ribbon on your ram rod, when you reload the rifle back up after the shot. the ribbon will fall on the ground where you are standing. marking where you shot from. Good Luck!

Good Luck!Maybe tie two ribbons on ram rod. I've heard of people so excited they left the rod in the barrel for the second shot. This second ribbon would help locate ram rod faster for third shot. Have fun!
Here is a minor recommendation that I believe makes a major difference in avoiding misfires. I cut a small piece of wire to serve as a nipple pick. Just about every time a replace a new cap, I take that wire and poke it into the nipple until I can feel the powder. I think fouling in that little nipple hole causes most of the misfires I hear about (Ie. Cap goes off, but powder does not). I cut a bunch of those little wires so I can have one in several different pockets, etc. Best of luck this season.
