Yesterday my friend and I shot the new Pro Hunter in a sort of torture test of the new breachplug and stock. 243 shots, one dead gopher at 250 yards, new Nikon Omega muzzleloader scope got seriously tested, my LV Steel Targets stood up to a lot of abuse perfectly, sore arms today from seating so many boollits, perfect weather - northern Montana was kind to us.
That is the most shooting I have done with muzzleloaders, could have run up an even higher number but we got to playing games with the targets, lots of standing shots and such.
Around the 100 shot mark the breach plug is pretty dirty but it keeps on tickin'. Takes a special kind of fool to inhale so much smoke... Wind was usually in our favor but not all the time. Story for the NRA.
