Does anyone have one of the .50 caliber muzzleloaders he makes ? What do you think ?

Matt NormanI do not have one, but have spent quite a bit of time hunting with two guys that do. One of them is the fellow you see on their website videos demonstrating shooting, loading, and cleaning them. I have personally helped drag out deer that he's killed well beyond 200 yards and witnessed him make a 250 yards head shot (called) on a doe. As for the 500 yard shooting capabilities on big game, I believe they can do it but certainly require a lot of range practice, optics, and real-world ballistics understanding. I would liken it to whether an accurate 45-70 is a capable of 500 yard big game shooting; yes, but...
They are very well made and perform as described.

Would that be Randy? IF so I cannot think of anybody who knows those guns any better. He is a member of our local gun club (where the video was shot)and is a heck of a nice guy. twilli: The guns are well made and they stand behind their product. If you have any questions I can put you in touch with Randy.
