Muzzleloader hunting...other than large game?
« on: March 23, 2008, 03:23:38 AM »
Do you hunt with your muzzleloader, for small game, varmints, etc.?

I'm considering the purchase of muzzleloader, but don't want it to be a 1 season weapon.

Your opinions and experiences are appreciated.
Thank you, Bowhunter57

I like to use all of mine, from .54 to .32 throughout the year.  I carry my .54 and .50s hunting skunks, chucks, coyotes and other pests.  I use my .45 and .32 for small game and varmints.  I enjoy hunting snowshoe hare with a .44 revolver.  There's some kind of varmint to hunt all year, the choice of weapon is yours.  The more you carry them and shoot them, the better you get.....and it is fun.
Keep both eyes open and make the first shot good.
