[Hunting with muzzleloader in wet condition]

Just a quick question,1st season with a muzzleloader,what do guys do when hunting in wet snow/ rain in terms of protection from rust, going Saturday, forecast has  precipitation in the forecast.Thanks in advance for your input

Thoughts and prayers to your family.I lost my brother and best friend to COVID 19.We fished and hunted over 45 years together, however people feel about the the virus I can tell you from first hand experience it's real.End of November 2019 he helped me drag a deer out of the woods Had a end of life visit Jan 8th 2021.It happened that fast he was healthy, active part time charter Capt on lake Ontario.I wouldn't wish this experience on anyone, hopefully things will get better soon.I feel your pain take care & stay safe.

Thank you for the condolences,one of our hunting buddies came to camp had COVID, didn't know it, asymptomatic,gave it to my brother and another hunting buddy,I didn't take it seriously prior to my brothers death.I guess it depends on witch side of the fence your on

OnJan8 2021 I lost my brother to COVID-19.No he wasn't sick prior to this,infact he helped me drag a deer out of the woods in early December.We had fished& hunted for over 45 years together.I was lucky to have a " end of life visit" with him.When you are in a COVID unit watching your loved one take their last breath you may think differently regarding the virus when they unplugged the ventilator.I know there's a lot of politics with the virus I can tell you it changed my life forever,I relive that last visit every day in my head.Ask me how gun opener was this year. I put a small cross up at his favorite hunting spot so I could say good morning as I walk by.I wouldn't wish this on anyone, one way or another we will get through this.I hope no one here has to  experience this.Better days lay ahead

[New to muzzleloader hunting]

Just courious about what you guys use for powder, bullets.I currently plan on using 50 g of White Hots for powder, power belts for projectile.I sighted in with these,I also have Hornady SST. I read where the power belts don't leave much of a exit hole? Thank you in advance

[Going soft hearted]

The day I stop having compassion & respect for the game IAM hunting is the day I won't hunt anymore.Nothing wrong with having feelings

Seems like a great forum,sportsman are a dying breed,glad I found this. trying to get my 3 Year old grandson in to the outdoors.caught his first fish this summer at a pond in back of deer camp.Seems like the younger generations are not get involved in the outdoors as much.Trying to change that,as they are our future to this sport.
