Muzzleloading Supplies

[lumberzac]

Does anyone know of a good place to purchase a muzzleloader starter kit (locally (Saratoga area) or on the internet)? I was given a .50 cal CVA inline over the weekend. I like to find something that has some speed loaders, sabots, and cleaning kit. I found one online at Cabela's and couldn’t find one at BassPro. I was wondering if there was someplace else I should try looking. I’m going to need the kit before the weekend when the late muzzleloading season starts.

Give Chris or Kevin a call @ Nemecs Sportshop 623-2049 (They have a shop in Toga and W-Burg) and tell them what you need, they will take good care of ya and won't jerk you around like some of the big boys. Tell them Tim had you call.

Gander mountain has a nice CVA kit available... I don't believe they have an online catalogue though, you would need a store nearby

if i were you i would get all the stuff seperate that way you can pick and choose what you like and what you are comfterable with. for powder i would use pyrodex pelletes and a bullet cva power belts 100 grains and the power belt is what i use and they are dead on for a muzzle loader. you can get most of the stuff at walmart but bobs bait in corinth has a great selection also just shop around

Try Power Belt bullets and Hodgdon's Triple 7 powder pelletts. I've had great success with them. There's a great small store in Latham on Rt. 7 near the intersection with Rt. 87. I'm sure a forum member will know.

Looks like I'm all set. I was able to pickup what I needed between Zack's Sports, Dick’s, and wally world. None had the single kit I was looking for, but I was able to get everything in pieces. I’m off to the range tonight to sight in. I’m going to try TC Shockwave sabots, 300gr (I wanted to go 250gr but Dick’s didn’t have any I wish I picked them up from Zack’s) with 100gr Hodgdon's Triple 7 powder pellets.

You'll like theTriple 7 and come to hate the sabots. After you fire each round you need to swab the bore when you use a sabot. With a power belt you just push it down the barrel. They are machined .001" under bore size. You'd be smart to take them back and swap them for power belts. I promise you'll thank me.

I've grown up using a patch and a ball. If anybody is willing, so I dont look like a moran, could ya tell me what a power belt actually is? I have Pedersuli long rifle with a full stock, it is new, but I would love to keep the barrel and everything clean when I'm out firing it. I use the pellets now, and people have suggested the sabots, but I have a wooden push rod and I dont want to break it. Any help?
