2019 Colorado Buck
« on: September 23, 2019, 05:48:50 PM »
Got this nice Colorado muley last monday! 60 yard shot, 40 yard recovery. Shooting a Traditions St.Louis Hawken kit gun I built a few years ago. 80gr 2fg Gearhart - Owen black powder, .020" patch and .490 round ball. The blood trail was excellent! So good, my girl friend ( her first time going on a hunt ) picked up the blood trail and tracked it for me.

Excellent
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

Congrats on a nice buck.  Were you ever able to kill something with that kit rifle you got from me?

Cool buck love the velvet it looks so bright and clean. Nice to see another guy who uses a traditional. I have a cut down .54 hawken but with the shorter barrel I've never been able to shoot accurately past 50 yards with patched round balls so I use a pure lead conical. Great duds too man! You went full traditional.
