Yeah the arrowhead plug is what I put in there….

Yes BH209, hopefully that’s not the X factor. I’m hoping the aftermarket breech plug design holds up better

Well, I sold my Leupold ML scope in the classified forum here on MM and met a great guy from Washington in the process. If anyone is thinking about selling their scopes I would recommend doing it sooner than later. As soon as the new proclamation drops I think the market will be flooded with...

Strong Work!

So, no flip up covers, I was thinking of another gun; but still has nice rubber covers. Found the box! Also has Talley base/rings for a Rem 700 (not sure what else they fit) but I’ll throw those in…. One little small scratch on the top and a couple little nicks but overall in good shape. I...

Hi yes, I’ll try either tomorrow or this weekend. Not sure if I have the box still but I’ll look around for it.

Up for sale is a nice Leupold Gold band Muzzle Loader scope. 3-9x40 with ballistic drop reticle. I had this mounted on a Remington 700 UML and dropped multiple deer/elk. Has 2 x flip up reticle protectors. Has been well taken care of. Only selling because NM has banned scopes on MLs. $195 +...

I’ve seen a dead one on the side of the road in 36, but really the most I’ve seen is down there SE of Carlsbad down by the TX line. They’re in there pretty thick… Black water draw, pecos river etc…. Down to the TX line

That sucks about Knight’s customer service. My Remington has no customer service now since they went under. What used to be a $40 breech plug is now impossible to find. Ended up going with Arrowhead rifles in Arizona for an aftermarket plug and primer system. Those guys are great to deal...

Alright, thanks for all the input, seems like I’ll settle on the Williams. They even have a model specific for the Rem 700 UML, so that’ll should make install easier. Probably wait for the proclamation to come out officially in January, but sounds like the ban did pass.

Thanks roadrunner, that looks like a nice site picture, i’ll look into those. True Glow’s are great on shotguns and pistols, but at 100+yards I’m worried a big ol bright dot will just obscure your target… Oh yeah, forgot to mention, I’ve got a nice Leupold ML BDC scope for sale now, lol.

Well sounds like the scope ban on muzzle loaders passed… Now I need to get my Remington UML set up with iron sites. Anybody have any experience doing this or recommendations on specific brands of iron sites? My initial research is pushing me towards a rear peep and fine crosshairs in a tube in...

Sorry if this was already asked; when do we find out the commission’s final decision on scopes on muzzleloaders?

It’s a chronic wasting disease unit so study up on how to treat the skull etc. Has to be soaked in bleach or taken to a warden to be tested before taking it out of the unit. But the good news is its supposedly not transferable to humans...
