I’ve loved hunting with charcoal-burners since realizing years ago our state, like many, offered a dedicated deer season for muzzleloaders above and beyond the “modern†gun season. For years I hunted with my reproduction Hawken .54 caliber and shot a lot of whitetail, including several hanging on my walls but I’ll be the first to admit it’s not the most efficient method of harvesting game. It’s awfully slow to load, not exceptionally accurate and as I saw firsthand, very sensitive to wet weather.
