  • In this episode, I talk with my wife Paisley about our first family living history experience, what we learned and what we plan on doing to improve our impression and equipment for next time. Paisley and I have day-tripped to events since we were dating but things never lined up with work to become participants at an event, that all changed this year where we are planning on being out almost 10 weekends in 2024.


    We aren't professionals by any means and we are still learning, but we wanted to share some of the planning we did to do our best to make sure we, and our toddler had a great time in the 18th century.

  • Idaho looks to be the target of pressures to open up it’s muzzleloading season.

    This news story comes from a tip from the Idaho Wildlife Federation. For full transparency, they are against this bill.

    Idaho Wildlife Federation Alert- https://idahowildlife.org/news/action-alert-ho469


    Last fall, Idaho Fish and Game proposed a change to allow lead and non-lead projectiles in their muzzleloader season. While in committee to discuss the change, legislators reportedly felt the changes didn't do enough and have introduced HB 469 as an alternative change


    HB 469 seeks to legislativly direct the IDFG to not adopt or enforcing any rule that makes it unlawful to use 209 primers, pelletized powder, or sabots in a muzzleloader-only season.

    Initial perception - very round-about and forceful way to open up Idaho’s current muzzleloaders season via state legislature, not the IDFG.


    The 2023 Edition of IDGF Big Game Seasons and Rules only uses the word “traditional” twice, not in reference to muzzleloaders. Idaho Fish and Game’s documentation never mentions the idea of historic preservation or traditional muzzleloading appreciation anywhere. This is important because that point is the key fulcrum of this argument here and across the United States.

    (It could be argued that this conversation over words and meanings is happening across American Culture right now, but we’re going to stick to muzzle loading. Keep an eye out though in your day-to day life)

    Based on Idaho’s rules, Idaho appears to have a more “traditionally” focused muzzleloader season but,

    To be blunt, nothing in Idaho’s Fish and Game says anythign about keeping muzzleloading traditional, it’s a big ol’ legal hole in the “traditional” argument that can be driven through with a truck.

  • Today we're talking with Bob Vogt, muzzleloading enthusiast, secretary of the Gemmer Muzzleloading Club, and one of the principal members involved in organizing the Hawken Classic. We're speaking to Bob about his history in muzzleloading and how he came to be such a great promoter of his local club. Bob speaks about what he does to promote the club, its events and its history.


    In the second half we're talking to Bob about a recent challenge he and his team have faced after losing their event location for the 2024 Hawken Classic. Bob gives us an outline of what happened and how he hopes you can navigate cultural changes to protect your events, clubs and communities.


    Bob and the Hawken Classic aren't the only events facing these issues, across the country events are closing their gates or changing radically in an attempt to navigate troubled waters. Culture continues to change and if we want muzzleloading to be around for future generations we need to be prepared, as Bob puts it, to have more conversations about what we love and why we are so passionate about it.

  • Missouri legislators voted on May 10, 2023 and passed a bill that designates the Hawken rifle as Missouri’s official state rifle. The original House bill (HB 224) was sponsored by Representative Mazzie Boyd(R) and was subsequently attached to a Senate bill in order to expedite the outcome. The action, pending Governor Parson’s signature, marks Missouri as the 7th state in the Union to elevate a rifle to official state status. Representative Doug Clemmons (D) co-sponsored the original bill.


    Today I speak with Representative Mazzie Boyd who was one of the legislative leaders of the mission to recognize the Hawken as Missouri's state rifle. We discuss some of the legislative process that made this happen as well as the cultural impact recognition like this can have.

  • Today we're talking with Aaron Moystner, a muzzleloading enthusiast with a taste for muzzleloading shotgun competition. Aaron is a lifelong muzzleloading shooter whose grandfather got him started at the age of 4. As Aaron got older, his grandfather would bring Aaron and a step stool to local matches so Aaron could shoot. While Aaron enjoys all aspects of muzzleloading, his current focus is muzzleloading shotguns and competing with them.


    In this episode, Aaron answers some questions many of us have about muzzleloading shotguns and discusses some of the differences between hunting and competition muzzleloaders. We dive deep into the different kinds of matches out there as well as the thought process of a competition shooter.

  • It's a big week for muzzleloading news, today we're jumping in with some updates.

    First up we have a new proposed rule by the ATF that could require you to document how much powder you have and where it is stored. It's a proposed rule, but I think you should know about it. The comment period is open right now. Please leave a professional comment about why you oppose this rule. Then we've got Team USA taking gold at the MLAIC Long Range World Championships, congrats to everyone involved! Big news for GOEX Fans, the first shipment of Estes Energetics owned GOEX blackpowder (Newly manufactured) is expected to arrive at the NMLRA just in time for the Fall Championship shoot, September 9-17. It sounds like NMLRA members at the event will be the first to have the chance to purchase the first run of newly manufactured GOEX blackpowder. In muzzleloading industry news, the Traditions Shoehorn and CVA Crossfire have been released. We're seeing continued demand for muzzleloaders, but increased demand for traditional muzzleloaders. A good sign for the preservation of the sport if you ask me!


    I'll be at the NMLRA Shoot this weekend, if you see me on the grounds, don't hesitate to say hi and tell me what you love about muzzleloading!

  • Today we're talking with Jeff Jaeger. Jeff is a historian, collector, and all-around enjoyer of muzzleloading, but he didn't come into muzzleloading as anyone I've ever talked to on the show has before. You see, Jeff grew up in Wisconsin in the 60s and 70s. Like many of you, he grew up watching Fess Parker as Daniel Boone on television when he got home from school, but that was all the exposure to muzzleloading he had until his early 30s. Although he was an avid hunter and outdoorsman through his childhood, Jeff and his area missed much of the American Bicentennial fever that swept the nation. Even the uproar created around "Jerimiah Johnson" and the Thompson/Center Hawken didn't make it into Jeff's world.


    It wasn't until Jeff was visiting an antique shop in North Carolina that he saw his first true American Longrifle. That antique shop and a little bit of chance would go on to change Jeff's life forever.

    Jeff Jaeger has been a collector and student of Indiana-made muzzle-loading rifles for over 25 years. He believes that while architecture, engraving, or craftsmanship should be appreciated, it’s the stories of the gunsmiths who crafted the rifles that make them most interesting. Jaeger is known for coauthoring John Small of Vincennes, Gunsmith on the Western Frontier with the late collector, Jim Dresslar in 2009.

  • "You can learn a lot from history, but you can also learn a lot from the people who are passionate about history."


    Today, I'm joined by Jake Book, who shares his family's interest with muzzle loading and living history. We're going to talk about how his dad's interest in history and the popular media wave of the 1970s led him to being a part of a muzzle loading club, and starting his own business in the early 1980s.

    Jake attended events with his parents from a young age and had a defining experience in his early teens when he met Nathan Kobuck and others doing serious historic impressions. Jake continued to stay in the hobby and found his own thing within it, which led to heavy research on clothing and using period equipment.


    Jake talks about his interest in living history and how he got into it. He explains that his dad's interest in history and muzzle loading influenced him from a young age. Jake attended events with his parents and was exposed to the hobby. However, it wasn't until he attended his first 'immersion event' where he becamed hooked on a whole new section of the hobby.


    He also discusses the challenges and rewards of limiting oneself to a specific time and place in history, as well as the impact of the internet on research. Jake shares memorable experiences from living history events, including an immersive event based on historical captive narratives that he helped plan and host. The conversation highlights the unique challenges and experiences that come with participating in living history and muzzle loading.

    10:27 Traditions Shedhorn hands on

    12:36 Hornady ELD-X Muzzleloader going into production soon

    14:49 Pedersoli, Lyman absent from show

    15:50 Let me know your questions and I'll try to answer them


    First up the availability of percussion caps. I was able to meet with a representative from CCI at the NRA show they did confirm that percussion caps are going back into production here sometime in June.


    We were able to confirm something that many of us already knew really about Blackhorn 209, but it is produced in Canada and the manufacturing facility isn't really owned by Hodgdon based on what I was able to find out here. The powder line is manufactured and sold through Hodgdon but Hodgdon themselves don't have any control over the actual production facility, it's not like a Hodgdon facility with a Hodgdon sign out front.

    It’s not confirmed by Hodgdon here but based on what I've kind of gathered, that production line is almost rented out or or accessible by Hodgdon for a run of powder but it's not under Hodgdon's control.

    Second here is that Blackhorn 209 powder is a double based, double extruded powder according to Hodgdon. It's a complex powder to make it's also very chemically similar to a powder that's in high demand from the military and other military contracts. And while they weren't going into that information fully in depth here we were able to kind of confirm that the powder is in demand and powders near it chemically are in demand by Western militaries.


    Connected to a little bit of the the percussion cap shortage and the Blackhorn 209 issues that we've seen we saw a statement released before the NRA show from CVA muzzleloaders recommending that if you are interested in picking up a CVA Paramount Muzzleloader, their premiere long range muzzleloaders they recommend that you find a supply and and purchase your supply of Blackhorn 209 and large rifle primers before you purchase your Paramount.


    I was able to talk with Traditions at the NRA show this year about the availability of the shed horn and actually see one in person which was really exciting we've only kind of seen those side view photographs of the shed horn since its launch.


    Last up I was able to talk with Hornady about the ELD-X muzzleloading bullet and its release time frame. Representatives from Hornady did say that they've got finally the final tip mold for these bullets to go into production. They say that the mold process has to be so perfect that it takes so long to get a quality mold made, but they've got the mold for the plastic tips that go into these bullets now and they're ready to go in production here in May and June and we should start seeing them on shelves pretty quickly after that.

    Muzzleloading enthusiasts may be able to breathe a sigh of relief this June. In a conversation I had with a CCI representative at the 2023 NRA Show, it was shared that CCI will be starting it’s next production run of percussion caps in June 2023, with expected retail release coming shortly after in July and August.
