Wouldn't this be involuntary manslaughter? Why shoot the gun into the air?

you can't 'unload' a muzzle-loader, ya gotta empty it by firing the round.

The safest way is into the ground.

Not really they make a attachment that goes on the end of your ram rod that has what almost looks like a screw that you can pull out the bullet.

Costs $2.50

Idiot has no business loading a gun he doesn't know how to make safe.

Yup, if I want to unload, pulling the bullet is a lot easier than cleaning the whole gun for just one shot.

That's about it.

Or some idiot didn't know how to safely operate his rifle, which includes knowing how to safely unload it using any one of about four simple methods.

That's assuming Bubba cleans his gun.

I'm really not one that should talk but with BP one BEST clean them ASAP. BP bullet traveled over a mile, makes one wonder how many of those SOB's in the Mid East get whacked.

i typically just unscrew the breech plug/nipple and remove the powder/bullet that way.

You people with your new fangled in-line Muzzle Loaders, What is a Breach Plug?

yeah..its on my list to get a real bp rifle one of these days..

Redneck · Feb 8, 2012

Im one of the lucky ones too. I unscrew my breech plug on my T/C Triumph, dump the powder out, and send the ram rod down the barrel to remove the bullet.
