Seen two bucks coming opening morning of second season in Illinois 400 yds away. Not very much light. I could not make out second ones rack for bout 10 mins. First one was Not a shooter. Can called for 15 mins to get them closer. At 265 yds the second one was a shooter (pre ground shrinkage lol), and wasn't going to get any closer. Click, bang, double lung. Will post pics when I remember how. Same morning my brother droped one at 217 yds .. Both savage 10mlII 50cal Vihtavouri n110 40grs 300gr sst Hph12 W209 .............a lot of great shooters and a lot of great loads but this one continues to prove. The test of time....thanx for all the help

That was a nice shot and congrats. The Board is a big help to everyone but I also credit the individual who perseveres with load development for their muzzle-loader. You’ve obviously found a working combination that best suits your needs. Nicely done.
