    First time with blackpowder

    Or Pyrodex actually

    Was at burro for some fun on the weekend and finally took my Blackpowder barrell for my Mossberg 500 out to the range. What a hoot to shoot and the looks I got from some of the other people were hiliarious. Especially since its normally my HD/gamer gun set up with a sidesaddle and ghost rings sights, and a single point sling.

    Like I told someone who asked what it was. Its 1800's tacticool

    I need to do the black powder more often.

    Blackpowder is a blast! Shoot more of it!
    Next to me in the blackness lay my oiled blue steel beauty. The greatest Christmas gift I had ever received, or would ever receive. Gradually, I drifted off to sleep, pringing ducks on the wing and getting off spectacular hip shots.

      OK, that sounds like it would be pretty funny to watch.

        I finally got to shoot my in line BP rifle at 100yds last week. It's a 50cal that I use 45cal lead sabot's.. it shot 5 shots in a 3" group!! Using those fiber optic glow sights... or what ever they are called....I love my BP rifle too! especially with the Pyrodex pellets!

          The WTF reaction of people as I was shoving a ramrod down the barrel of what looked like a shot gun was pretty funny. THe RSO really had no idea what to say.
