Saturday afternoon I was in the gunshop. This was opening day of our muzzleloading deer season.
The hour I was there at least 4 guys came in ranting and raving about their new inline muzzleloaders. They all had misfires and lost a shot at a nice deer.
Their problem was that technology can not overcome ignorance.
They thought they could hunt with a dirty gun loaded with Pryodex.
It does not work that way.
You hunt with a clean dry gun loaded with blackpowder and it will fire no matter if it is a flinter or an inline.
These inlines are supposed to be so easy to clean you would think these morons could clean them before the hunt.
Now these rifles are back on the dealers rack still dirty and some are still loaded.
They were sold back to the dealer for about one third of what they paid for them.
