Yea started with just the 2 to get an idea if how they are, going to probably be going with ghost our Double Alpha for the rest of my mag pouches.

Only real competition around here that I have found is Steel matches or a 2 gun but its pistol/shotgun with the option to just pistol only with high round count

@Hillbilly77 if you don't mind my asking, where did/doyou order from? I am looking for a good source for M/L powder (and potentially, projectiles, etc.)

Thanks,

@BDinPutnam,
This all came from Powder Valley. I just recently found out about them. They seem to have a good stock and their prices are the cheapest I’ve found anywhere.
Even after paying the hazmat shipping it was still cheaper than anything I've found locally.
Powder Valley - Shop Reloading Supplies and Ammunition


You asked specifically about muzzleloading, but if you are into reloading, here are my favorites for bullets, based on price and my own observations on quality.
For bulk handgun bullets I like Everglades Ammo, X-treme Bullets, and I've also had good luck with Berry's Bullets. I'm not so much loyal to any one brand of bullet. I just shop around and buy what's cheapest. For .357 Magnum, I like Everglades the most. X-treme & Berry's bullets are plated and full house mag loads are too hot for them, per their respective info & Hodgdon's load data.

How much does he charge for a sight install? My local Glock smith quoted me $20

No clue. Havent talked to him yet. They are still a super new shop, only open 2 days a week, and do mostly stuff like laser engraving, but are they guys that helped me with my 19.

But when I find out I'll relay back for sure


Hell 20 monies wouldnt be bad tbh, especially since I dont just go swapping sights every other day or month lol

My only concerns come from Dawson’s sight install video. He says u should file the sights if needed. I just wonder if my local guy will file the sight or just beat the sight in.

I would hope any gunsmith worth their salt would hopefully do it right.

At the same time my only meh about dawsons is they even say on the package to keep the sights oiled so they wont rust. Buttttt for a range toy game gun I'm ok with a little extra maintenance

Does she like it?

She picked it out, color too, but it doesn't look like teal color that we saw online.. I was worried about her ability to rack the slide but she can handle it fine.. everything including the safety seem to work very stiff , needs a good break on i hope. Its her work weekend so shooting reports will have to wait..
