Almost a Darwin award winner. Ya just never know when something like that will happen, just a few months ago a guy next to me at the gun range blew up a Marlin 1895 45/70 shooting "light" reloads.

Well,I was in a sporting goods store one day a few
years ago and a guy came in and said,he needed
a can of powder..Didn't say what for or what kind.
The guy behind the counter reached up and got a can
of 3031 and told the guy it was a good choice..
I asked the guy what he was loading and he said a
muzzleloader..Damn,I thought..I told him he needed
black powder and he said he thought all powder was
black..The guy running the shop should have been
smart enough to ask what he needed it for,etc.
I'm glad I was there to save this guys a$$ or eyes..
I ofter wonder who would have been to fault if he had
bought the 3031 and got hurt or hurt someone else..
This is a true story...Happened in a shop in PA..

Beezer, will you be posting pictures of the dispatched deer?
I'm new fairly new to hunting, only this season and Thanksgiving to Jan 1st of last year. I've managed to get one with the bow, but the gun and scope thing has seemed to come a little slower. For whatever reason I've yet to hit one with a shotgun slug or powerbelt. It's all learning, so I don't feel bad about a miss if I know it's a clean miss.

This had nothing to do with a bad or dumb question. This happened in Indiana and the guy did not have a clue what a muzzleloader was made for or what to use in it. Just plain ignorance of anything to do with muzzleloading or deer hunting for that matter. Words to the wise take a hunter education course and know your firearm and what it intended use is, and know your target and what is on the other side of it!!
It is unbelievable the misshaps that accure with todays laws and training available. Plumb senseless, the stupidity going on out there. And we wonder why our rights to bare arms is in danger!!!

I would like to know what being in Indiana has to do with your comment above.

One more thing: BE PREPARED TO FIGHT AND POSSIBLY DIE FOR WHAT YOU TRULY BELIEVE IN.
I wasn't trying to hi jack the thread. This just got me thinking of this. More ammo for the ANTI's.
