    What Is The Back Story To Your Screen Name?

    Well I was nicknamed "Army Mule" or just "Mule" by some of my hunting partners a long time ago. Seems they just could not keep up or figured out how I could cary a 60+ lb pack up and down the mountains all day long while hunting elk. I told them the Army had a lot to do with this so hence the...

    Two Dems, Three Repubs, and all of them love "resonable restrictions" so no matter which way it goes, Socialist "less filling" or Socialist "taste great"------- your getting screwed if you like the "fire sticks" Mule

    Canada is on the ball----- good thing they recognize that the Islamist are notorious drunks and boozing fools----- good correlation with those DUI's and having C4 packed in the trunk. Boy I feel so much safer now!!!!!!!! Mule

    45/70 sharps long range hunters?

    Plenty of folks! The 45 cal 540 gr. with black powder will take anything you want from 5ft to 500 yds no problem. The 45-70 lacks the umph that a 45-110 will deliver at further ranges but in this game, trajectory is the key issue since the rounds travel at 1300-1400 fps. Go to the Shiloh...

    ban on bullets containing lead

    Better leave your Chicom jewlery at home--- it contains on average 4 % lead and also leave the Chicom toys at home---- they contain on average 1 % lead. Wouldn't want those condor ingesting any of those itmes now would we Mule

    Bill and Lerchs Wyoming Debacle!!!!!

    To all, Just a short comment and a suggestion. Blaze orange can get swallowed up in less than ideal conditions and I know these guys are idiots and frankly, I would have immediately returned fire over their heads. You cannot wait for "fools" to get the message without a "return" sonic and...

    45/70 blackpowder

    The great Holy Black Well good to see you want to use some of the original stuff. As far as "getting 70 gr of 2Fg" into a 45-70 case, no problem. Black is more consistent and brands like Goex like to have "compression" to keep velocity well behaved. Most BP reloaders use anywhere from...

    Shot Placement advice for Bison - Replies needed quickly!

    Quick reminder--- go look for the layout on the internal organs of the bison They are not layed out in the same proportion to your normal "anatomy" markers as you are used to looking at elk or deer. The heart sits lower in the chest cavity and you must be careful of going "too high" on your...

    Muzzleloader accuracy?

    JE Custom Hence why I said use a 58 cal----- 110+ of 2F and it does the job. If every anecdotal story about shots, hours of game tracking, non expanding projectiles, ect. were the basis of our choices then everyone should throw their stuff in the trash can because I can find a story...
