Come 'on Next Season....
I bought my first muzzleloader Sat. at Scheels in DSM. I was very happy with it. I borrowed a friends old CVA last year and got along fine with it. My buck dropped dead just the same and I didn't figure I needed to spend double the money for a TC for whitetails in Iowa. Anyways...I ended up getting a great deal on a Traditions Pursuit, Thumbhole stock, nickel barrel, quick remove breach etc...
My question is, in the book it says to apply "Traditions Breach plug anti-seize" on the plug so it doesn't stick. I know first hand about this because my buddy forgot to grease his breach plug and it was seized bad in his gun. Does anyone know if this is a special lube or is it just any high temp anti-seize for threads? I just didn't know if I needed to go buy this specific stuff or if I could just use some general high-temp anti-seize.
My second question is the book says "when using Triple 7 powder" you can only use 130 grains. It says you can use pellets or powder triple 7 but it gave the warning several times that you can only use 130 grains when using triple 7 powder (always used the word powder, not pellets). Does anyone know if this really applies to just the powder or is it any triple 7? Last year, I just used 3 pellets (50g each so 150grains total).
Thanks for your help!
