Look what I won! Okay the link should go to a google+ page of a gun I won last night. It is a muzzle-loading rifle. Apparently a really decent one from what I am told. However I have no idea how to use it. Anyone got any ideas? Suggestions in reply or PM would be appreciated.
If dueling were still legal I think there would be less idiots in charge of things...

Nice! Just youtube it. You can find all the info you need from there. I'll leave you 1 tip though, keep it clean. You wont get away with putting it away dirty, it will punish you.

Go to the Equipment & Methods - Muzzle loading Section and put this there too! You'll get more help than you can imagine!

I am not entirely sure I would like dealing with a muzzle loader.

I think they are awesome, killed two big bucks just a couple weeks ago with mine. The new inline muzzle loaders are amazingly accurate and fun to shoot. Similar to archery in that it's unlikely you will get a second shot if you miss. I have the TC Endeavor with a Nikon BDC scope and have shot a variety of loads, but prefer the 250 grain Shock Waves with 150 grains of powder.

Well I just watched a bunch of youtube videos over what happens if you load it wrong. I really feel like keeping my face. I don't actually hunt for deer anyways, so I have no need for it anyhow. I think I might see if I can sell it to some family or something.

Sell it to some family so they can blow their faces off?? You should just give it to me & I will bear the burden of making sure it is properly dealt with and no worries to you. Will PM my address.

How much do you want for it? I'm in the market for one.
