I hear Ya. I like the tube as I cant stand a loading gate. It's all personal preference I guess.Captainkirk wrote: ↑Tue Apr 30, 2019 10:57 amDave, I see New Henry now is offering a rifle with a feature that allows either traditional loading (from the feed tube end as with all other Henry's) or from the receiver...King-style loading gate. That was my biggest beef with New Henry; I don't like dropping large caliber shells down a long feed tube.

Nothing clears a troubled mind like shooting a bow.

Pic of my old muzzleloader from last month. Killed a good buck that afternoon. I’ll try to get around to posting the story and some pics. It’s pretty good. Some ups and downs.
Happiness is a tight chain!

Can't wait to hear the story and see the pics.
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Sounds good. I always enjoyed the times hunting with the old TC Hawken even if it was given to me cause the barrel was nearly ruined. I found that ballets would shoot accurately out to 80 yards or so. Wish I'd have picked up a Green Mountain barrel when they were plentiful.
Jesus replaces the old covenant and speaks to the believer the moral code of God by His Spirit directly to the heart. He is the eternal, everlasting revelation of God to mankind. In Him is both the knowledge of righteousness and the power to live right.

Recently scored on a slightly used Lyman Great Plains .54 in flint. First rock lock I've owned. Can't wait to get out and try it.

Re: Black Powder-the Trad Archery of Guns
a flincher is a lot of fun to shoot, have seen some guys shoot better scores with the flintlock versus the cap. I gave my last flintlock to one of my grandsons. you will have a blast with it.
