Underdog Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 What a blast Not got a 410 and the 12g seemed a bit much the other night so I took the .58" smoothbore muzzle loader loading it with about 9/16oz of shot. It worked a treat but in the dark a fiddle to load....some prepared cartridges would be the answer there! Poor picture sorry, the little camera struggles in the dark to focus. I wonder how many folk went ratting with a muzzleloader tonight B) U. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fruity Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 That's a nice size rat there , how does a muzzle loader compare noise wise ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mentalmac Posted April 28, 2014 Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 Loving the gentlemanly tissue to pick up the deceased :-). Good shooting - bet it lit up like a christmas tree when fired in the dark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underdog Posted April 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 that is one fat rat lol Don't be fooled by the camera! The rat is closest to the lens! Loving the gentlemanly tissue to pick up the deceased :-). Good shooting - bet it lit up like a christmas tree when fired in the dark. Lol...it's not tissue, it is one of those ingredient labels off a feed bag! I was surprised by how little flame there was, about 40grns worth was not lighting up much. Probably a good thing....don't want to start a fire! U. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
