  1. My mini 30 is a older 189 series with wooden stock , they don't make wooden ones anymore.. I can get two out of three touching at 75 yards....I lost the gas rod piston bushing, took me awhile to get one and time to install it...next time when cleaning I will be more careful if I take apart the gas piston.... It has been a safe queen for a bit now but I think it's time to take it to the woods.
  2. Any mini 30 fans, I shot mine today and forgot how accurate it is. I might rest the x7 muzzle loader and use the ruger this gun season.it sure loves the Remington 125 grain soft points.
  3. If you can find Speer deep curls you will never look back. Try some .452 xtp in 300gr if you can't . All components can be shipped to nys from anyone willing to ship them.
  4. It's only a matter of time before it will be banned for big game hunting.
  5. Bubba I won't be able to make it that way, thanks for trying. Steve
  6. I will know by mid week if I can head that way,if so I will pm for info I am off to Maine in July, I know kittery and cabelas has them, just watered to try some sooner.
  7. Americade??? is there a local dealer by you that has them
  8. Anyone have a source for them close to Albany area
  9. You got a price on the Parker please . Steve
  10. Love mine, couldn't be happier. I bet its taken 500 or so pics since getting it in January
  11. I got a cannon and love it. Think it's a 24,gun but like all the above get big as you can. Mine came with an AC outlet built in, I run a golden rod dehumidifier and bough a hygrometer to keep an eye on relative humidity . Get a couple buddies as they are real heavy.
  12. I have the m990i and it works beyond great.
  13. Not a fan of bdc scopes myself, be sure to get something with good eye relief and good warranty.

    Shooting

    Try loose powder, it's cheaper

    Shooting

    Are you shooting a 100gr of pellets or loose powder. As for cleaning supplies,try a 50/50 blend of windex to clean the bore , after that use a good oil and your good to go. Buy your bullets and sabots in bulk rather then the pre packaged stuff to cut cost down. I have not picked up a rifle for hunting in some time now, nothing like making smoke.

    Shooting

    Anybody been making smoke, I hope to get my thunderbolt back from doc white this month, can't wait to hit range. Wish it would warm up some. Been really thinking about getting a savage 10 ml-II or Nula before things really get costly. Might do a H and R 45/70 conversion too. With the price of ammo I and surprised more have not gone to black powder.
  17. Zacks in round lake is top notch, not only a nice selection but great customer service. Now a days that goes a long way . Also kittery trading post, always enjoy there large selection.
  18. I had hoped they had .452 Speer deep curls in 300 grain but no luck.
  19. Package of bullets arrived from powder valley yesterday .
  20. Gamaliel didn't have what I needed lets hope wideners or graff and sons ships to nys, will keep all posted.
  21. I really don't see that in the safe act, anyone order bullets for reloading on line???
  22. It's on the heavy side, should be a shooter for sure when it returns from Doc...
  23. Sorry to steal your thread, have you checked out doc's site. The thunderbolt was his version of a bolt 209 ignition muzzle loader. Doc is actually doing a bedding job on it as we speak. Whites are built like tanks and great conical shooters. The thunderbolt has a bold trigger and truncated rifling.. Doc has tested them for SML but will not recommend it nor will I. Mine has the laminated stock in SS with a Lyman 57 rear site and marble fiber optic front site.
  24. I may have asked you before , what model Nula you shooting. Melvin sure builds them right...some day I might have to buy one but after I finally bought my white thunderbolt things are on hold
