    After much research, and a trip to Cabela's to see what bullets are available, I went with RL-19. Picked up SST 123 grain bullets, but no brass or LR primers. Bought 5 boxes of PPU ammo to shoot to get the brass. Now to find dies and primers.

    Do Moose and Whitetails get along?

    I live in Chester. That pic was from Chester/Blandford state forest. The moose there was only about a half mile from the Turnpike between exits 2 and 3. Moose aren't easy to come by, but most people who hunt the area or hike near water have seen them in this area.

    Do Moose and Whitetails get along?

    This is him I passed by some deer tracks to move further into the woods, away from the road. I found 2 piles of scat and put the camera facing the piles. They were right along the edge of a swampy area that eventually pools into a pond. I'll move to cameras to another side of the pond and...

    Do Moose and Whitetails get along?

    I have some trail cam pics and only have pics of Moose. 1 good size bull, but can't shoot them here in MA. Do moose and deer get along? Or, are the deer afraid of their bigger cousins? I will move the cameras soon, but should I try a few hundred yards away, or a whole different area?

    TC Renegade 1/48 Problems.

    Just making sure... You are using .45 bullets, but make sure your sabots are for .45 bullets also. If they are .44 plastic sabots, that could make for a tight fit.

    Moving FL -> MA - Ownership Questions

    Step 1 is get a non-resident LTC. You get those through the state police. From what I hear, they are pretty easy to get. I think they want an NRA approved safety course certificate to get one. Make sure to apply for a Class A LTC with No Restrictions (or All Lawful Purposes) that is the...

    Smaller Weaver Screws

    I wanted to put a red dot on my shotgun to use during deer season. It has a front bead, which I like for small game and birds, but can't shoot it well with slugs. The receiver is drilled and tapped already (bought it used that way). So I picked up a 1 piece Weaver rail for a Mossberg 500 at...

    T/C White Mountain Carbine

    I'm not too worried about the Goex working. Like I said, I'm new to BP. I was really thinking about the short barrel and the fast twist. Yes it is a 1-20 twist, 22 inch barrel. That's the fastest twist I've seen in a ML, and the shortest barrel. Considering those 2 attributes, should I use...

    T/C White Mountain Carbine

    This is my first BP firearm. I wanted something light for hunting, and came across this while browsing the used gun racks. I LOVE the way it handles. Anyway. What types of bullets and loads do any other owners use in these fine pieces. It is 50 cal and has the fast 1-20 twist rate. I...
