exposed to elements
« on: April 20, 2018, 02:56:46 PM »
Just looked at the regs and not only are 209's now legal it looks like we no longer have to have the ignition exposed to the elements.

I'm buying a new gun.

Lead em if they're running.

No change to effective range. Lost a few deer due to the elements. Time to update my Knights

 :tup:     ;)  Got it. 

No, don't even really want a new one. Don't think I'll be hunting with it this year anyway. But I'll go ahead and order the new breech plug and try it out with the 209's and some of that Blackhorn powder to see how it does. Should've put in for multi-season deer I guess.

My gun doesn’t have a breech plug replacement option. Guess I could keep it for Idaho maybe someday and buy a new one for WA

Truthfully - you really do not need a 209 - O wait unless you want to shoot BH
Keep shooting muzzleloaders - They are a blast!!

I griped and complained about the new proposals. People griped back and told me I didn't know what I was talking about. I listened and took it to heart. Currently shopping for a .50 cal barrel for my Encore.  I love shooting that thing too much to not at least explore that option.

I was in the market for a new ML a few months ago and found a stainless pre encore with the .50 and 300 WM barrels for a steal.  The action has been worked over and has a 2lb5oz trigger with no creep.

That's what I am looking at with the 209 allowance.
