I shoot a T/C 50 cal omega and I get 2" groups with the 145grn at 100 yds. They shoot tighter groups if you swap clean/dry patches every two shots.

I got everything laid out for tomorrow... I should be hitting the hay soon to try to sleep. I doubt I'll be able to sleep much, I'm just too excited.

Pretty quite day , only saw turkeys . Saw some good buck sign , be back at it at 5:30 am Learned something though, never point your trail camera towards the rising sun , unless you want 91 pictures of the sunrise.

Today was slow. Found sign, and found other hunters. I'll be in bed soon to do it again in a different piece of woods.

I finally got some good trail cam photos. A bear and cubs and a nice eight point (x2) and a doe ! Still no deer but a bunch of buck signin a different area than yesterday. One trail camera site had a mock scrape and had a large bobcat track in it, but I didn't get any pics.

I was out at my spot by 6:00 am on Sat. and had a pack of Coyotes with 10'-0" from me. I tell you what, Sitting on a log with these guys within striking distance and a muzzle loader didn't make me fell all warm and fuzzy. Finally the leader spotted me and the pack took off. That was all the excitement I had for the weekend. Back to the grind next Sat.2

Many of you have seen the pics on MFF. I thought I'd post over here. I went out Saturday morning before daylight and sat till 8:30. I heard a couple shots at around 8:30 and another at about 8:40. At about 9 I saw some movement in the thick laurel. I could eventually make out a deer walking. I had no time to rest so I had to shoot off hand. It was about an 80 yard shot. I shoot a scoped Savage 10MLII. I have several other muzzleloaders in side hammers and 1 T/C system 1. All are very much fun to hunt with, but the Savage shoots smokeless. When you get to be my age, laziness tends to set in and although I love my blackpowder guns, I don't care much for the chore of cleaning.
