I got a T/C renegade LH years ago and not shot it yet. its a 50 cal. I had put fiber optic t/c sights on it and cleaned it so far. I've had this rifle for 4 years maybe longer. I have yet done any muzzle load hunting. It was a safe queen and the guy who had it never hardly shot it. I paid 250.00 for it then. I knew then it became a custom shop gun and went for more after I bought it. I got some bullets. I got maxi-hunter 275gr and maxi-ball 320gr. I also have hornady great plains 385gr. I had read then these post to be good in the rifle. I have a can off triple 7 powder. I got remington and nobel dynamite #11 primers. I forgot but it has a long barrel on it say 28" or something maybe longer. I don't remember twist rate on it either.
Recently I came across a ss right hand renegade hawkens style rifle I can get it for 125.00. Its a 50 cal also. Its a Sporting Arms International ss on dark wood. Its forsure a used rifle but still nice looking and I'm going to get it though just cause i like it and price seems good. Its made in italy and i know nothing about it. It had been tapped for a scope but the scope and rings did not come with it. I won't be putting a scope on it anyway just wished it was not tapped for the screws. I just bought a pack of 245gr powerbelt hollow points and a pack of 250gr hornady sst shockwave sabots. I'm not sure of the twist of this rifle. I cleaned the barrel and it felt fine. I can not see down it but it felt smooth when cleaning. I believe its a 24" barrel from what I measured.
I want to know everyhting about the SA Int. ss rifle and want to know what loads for both guns and there twist rate. What to use and not use and so forth. I plan on going muzzleloader hunting this year and most likely will use the ss one. Any input would be greatly appreciated!
