    Rechecked my zero yesterday on the CVA inline that I have been shooting since 98. 80gr 3f Goex, and a QT saboted bullet still rocks the whitetails here in Ky. Good luck on your hunt, I am heading out Saturday morning for our early 2 day muzzle loader hunt.

    I have use Pyrodex FFG equivalent for decades, 80 grains is the sweet spot for the Wolf shorter barrel.

    Great video! And yes, my exact comment to myself was that the 100 yard and 50 yard difference with such a heavy slug was "impressive"! And with only 100 grains not 150 grain powder charge. It would be great to have you tell us how this bullet performed when you make your first deer kill!.

    • @russellkeeling9712
      @russellkeeling9712 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I don't know why it is desirable to shoot such heavy bullets in muzzle loading rifles. I have some saboted bullets but for hunting I have always used a 190 grain round ball. These pass through an elk just like any of my smokeless rifles with pretty decent velocity. Maybe a big bear would require one.

      @@russellkeeling9712 i was trying a new load my ares are kinda thick an in reality 120 is a looooong shot for me i was shooting 2 pellets of white hots and 295 power belts shot really really good fot me for the 50 to 100 yrd range so i took it out longer than i usually would hope n to help someone shooting the same thing or wanting to try so they would have a ball park.....aint no doubt accuracy with round balls is amazing!!

    Howdy Whoo_Tee, I have used the power belt 295 grain but decided to go with the 250 grain Hornaday SST this year, next year though instead of going with the Spitzer style round,
    I want to try out their hollow points, I’ve never shot one out of my muzzleloader and I’m interested to see how they perform, The round on the front page of this video is interesting and I just saw 45 caliber ones that were literally 2 1/2 inches long, it look like you would be shooting a cone out of your musket..LOL
    I always sight in at 25 yards, and that puts me right around the bull’s-eye out to around 200 yards, I sight all my guns in this way

    My friend thank you very much for this video yesterday I made two big mistakes. I shot the biggest buck in my property at 165 yards. I miss an hour later I saw three more bucks in him walking together 130 yards a shot again And I did not hit him. I was so depressed I came back to my house went to my shooting range and I was hitting the target at 110 no problem I start looking up on Google what is the max to shoot with a muzzleloader at hundred yards and start dropping this morning I went back up I saw the monster buck 160 yards and I was so happy that he came back in. Hopefully I will get it for rifle season so i go my first buck of the season at 80 yards.

  • @11bravo4victor4
    @11bravo4victor4 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    The round will strike the same place at 25 yards and 125 yards the bullet trajectory is rising and dropping in-between those distances. So if you zero it at 50 yards it will strike low at 100 yards.

    @markmtbrider 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Moving faster than I thought! Less drop than a 22lr , maybe 22mag velocity of a bit over 2000 fps 2300? Fps very interesting since you didn't chrono.

    • @russellkeeling9712
      @russellkeeling9712 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Maybe but my guess is somewhere around 1800 fps. The mass of the .50 cal. bullet will cause it to retain velocity longer than the .22lr so drop of the larger bullet should be less.

  • @kevinrb9532
    @kevinrb9532 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I have an Accura 50, and it shoots incredibly well with Powerbelts, but it doesn't do as well with the heavier ELR bullets. I suspect a faster twist would help. I swear by Blackhorn 209, but it does take a different breech plug.

    Hey your doing a great job with your boy man. He is shooting that .243 great! Have saw too many adults that can't shoot that well. I have 5 year old twin boys that just moved from shooting a .22 to shooting my AR. They are hitting the paper at a 100, but that's about it. Price of ammo split between them keeps me from shooting with them as much as I would like. Anyway, you get an at a boy from me.

      @russellkeeling9712 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      My son used to be a poor shot when we were shooting paper until I made a bet with him for money. When that happened we were actually shooting our muzzle loaders. Since then he is quite good. We go this Sunday to make sure his .270 is still on cuz his deer and elk season begins the 30th.

  • @garyevans3421
    @garyevans3421 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I never had a need for an inline muzzle loader because until just recently, we never had a season for it. Looks like a good, accurate rifle there! By the way, is the CVA Scout in 45-70 of yours stainless or some kind of coating? I have a stainless Marlin in 45-70, but it would have to be totally dismantled to clean up the inside of the receiver after using black powder loaded cartridges, but that Scout looks like it would be a simple affair to clean!

    • @russellkeeling9712
      @russellkeeling9712 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      My CVA scout dismantles just like a single pipe shotgun. I don't understand what receiver you might be talking about. The only area the black powder should contact is the inside of the barrel.

  • @charlier3647
    @charlier3647 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Growing up, I had and still use a Knight Wolverine LK93 50Cal. I always zero 2 inches high at 50 yards which puts you dead on at 100yrds and about 2-3 inches low at 150. Same way I do my 30-30's. Meat in the freezer everytime.

  • @jusnuts1443
    @jusnuts1443 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    If I ever get an in-line, CVA would be my choice. I've got a Traditions .50 cal that I put together from a kit back in 1992. Mom got it for me for Christmas, thought it would take my mind off Desert Storm. Truthfully, I was a newlywed. My mind wasn't on the desert! Sorry, I got off subject! The problem with the Traditions is that I can put a scope on it, but can barely get the trigger cocked because of the tight fit. So, I just use the iron sights. That's ok up to about 75 yards. But I would feel more confident for longer shots, and shots in low light conditions, with a scope.

  • @ditchdigger93
    @ditchdigger93 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    If you're going to shoot Powerbelt bullets that is the best choice, the ELR shoots pretty flat in my Optima V2 LR. Wish you would have shot a couple more at a hundred. You really don't learn much by shooting one shot in any rifle. When you get rid of the rest of that Pyrodex try the Tripple 7 Firestar pellets. I think you'll like them better. A little hotter and a LOT cleaner. I'd love to try the Blackhorn 209, and I've even got the breech plug for it, but it's crazy high priced right now. Fifty bucks for ten ounces is a bit over the top for me.

    I had double the drop with Aerotips and I sighted an inch high at 50 yards. I'm hoping if there is a deer at 100 yards I can just aim higher on it. If beyond 150 I might have to hold over the deer. I tried using 150 grains of Pyrodex pellets but the grouping was all over the place.

  • @sniper12589
    @sniper12589 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    if your looking for a really really good clean powder for your muzzleloader you really need to check out blackhorn 209. its loose powder so once you know your volume meassurement to actual weight in grains conversion you can bassicly create a centerfire rifle accuracy with precise loads. and if you really want to throw a bone to some smokestick viewers and want to really show off what a very modern muzzleloader can do you should look at the CVA paramount. need to check your hunting regulations for min. bullet diameter. i have the .45 paramount bc indiana requires a bore of .45 cal min. and it is a personally proven sub MOA loader with many 2.5inch 300 yard groups. if your state allows for a 40 cal bore they are now making a paramount in .40 cal with their ELR bullets as well and its ballistics are pretty wild with very good potential. but either way definitly check into using blackhorn 209.

    Thanks for the video. I sight my Muzzleloader in at 50 as well. I use a 295 grain bullet though. I assume it will be about the same drop if not slightly less. Keep them coming. Maine North Woods Hunter (Shane)

    I ring steel at 200 yards with my CVA wolf. But, the short barrel limits the muzzle velocity. The math doesn’t support ethical shots past 100 yards. But, then again, I’ve got a Hawken muzzle loader that shoots 177 grain patched lead round balls at 1,600 FPS. Math says you could shoot the deer a point blank range and not kill it.

    Do you clean the bore between each shot? That’s the best way to achieve the most accuracy from a muzzleloader.

      That's not realistic if you are actually using the firearm. Running powder tests I can easily shoot a dozen times and still be able to seat the bullet on the powder. Actually a round ball and lubed patch works much better for that than a sabotted bullet.

      @@russellkeeling9712 Actually think about it for a second. If you reload ammunition, the one thing that needs to be the same is the pressure to achieve the most consistent accuracy. A muzzleloader is exactly like reloading a round, but instead of loading numerous rounds, you load it each time. And to make everything the exact same each time to achieve the exact same thing. The barrel needs to be the same from the first shot to your last shot. Everyone knows that each time a shot is fired in a muzzleloader it makes the barrel very dirty. So it changes between each shot. Cleaning it after each shot keeps it the exact same from the 1st to the 10th. It removes any deviation between the shots. ( same bullet , same power charge, same primer, same clean barrel) Oh it’s not really needed for fast follow up shots. But if you want the most accuracy it definitely is. I’m referring to in-line muzzleloaders with maximum charges more than traditional muzzleloaders.

      I have watched a video called Black Death in which they were hunting cape buffalo. The guide in the film used some kind of .50 cal. double barreled rifle. Not black powder but a .50 nitro express or something. In that video when the guide shot you are able to see the bullet in flight.
