- Опубликовано: 22 янв 2022
- Dude, hunting is HARD! Especially when you're trying to learn on your own, and you're hunting public land. But that's what makes it so exciting. I love exploring, I love learning, and the fun of the experience is what it's all about! This year I took my CVA Accura .45 into the woods in Pennsylvania for a public land adventure. I found mushrooms, new hunting spots, saw deer, other hunters, and ultimately had a great opportunity to shoot a deer! Well, to ATTEMPT to shoot... TO BE CONTINUED!

Very nice Allie. Your articulate, safe and happy. Beautiful to watch a young lady enjoy the outdoors and share!!!!! Please stay safe.
Allie is so cool.She is always smiling and living in the moment!
Glad you think so Wilmer! LOL thanks for watching!
Thanks for watching everyone! Don't forget to like and subscribe! Feel free to leave comments, questions, and feedback below!
At least you tried. Another day of hunting.
That's so awesome this video was sponsored by CVA! I knew when I bought my CVA it was quality and it will last forever. If you put a party balloon in your pack, you can put it on the end of your barrel if it starts raining. Good luck Allie and Nick ✌
Yes, both of our CVA's have been great!!
I love breakdown action guns. My 1st was a single shot over/ under Savage 22 rifle over 410 shotgun for a 9 year olds super squirrel gun. So I love the muzzle loader and see you're back in my favorite hunting place the hardwoods
Yep! Thanks for watching Robert!
I have a CVA mountain rifle in 50 caliber that I built in 1977. Now I want to go to Cabela’s tomorrow and get some black powder and take mine off the wall and fire it. Thanks for the motivation.
That is awesome!
Loved it ! Oh that is a lucky bike !
Lesson learned from 1 of my buddies in the early 80s, don't get married between August 21st and January 31st. I killed the day he was married and missed the wedding. Has been messing up his hunting ever since. Hunting in the rain has been quiet productive for me over the years. The muzzle loader industry has come a long way in the last 40 years. We had Thompson kit guns from Western Auto in those days with patched round balls and genuine black powder. Nasty stuff.
Weddings are always fun, but during the hunting season is bad timing! Thanks for watching!
Good video Allie your positive attitude will always get you over the bad days and unsuccessfully days hunting.when you use them power belts try a product called bore butter after you clean your gun run a patch of it down the bore and you can get 5 or 6 shots between cleanings good luck
Blackhorn 209 is extremely stable compared to black powder and as long as it doesn't get WET, can be left in the barrel for quite a long time without the worry of misfiring or slow ignition. Just cover the muzzle and keep the breech closed.
For sure.
I left my cva loaded with blackhorn 209 for 2.5 weeks, shot a nice buck a little over 100 yards away just fine. What i do is put a fired primer in it when I remove the live one so it stays sealed. I've heard of people accidentally leaving them loaded all year after the season and they still fire just fine and hit where they aim. I definitely don't recommend that but leaving it loaded for the duration of a season for a few weeks is no problems. Obviously check your local regulations as far as what the legal definition of loaded is.
Thanks for the feedback and congrats on the buck!
Don’t be afraid to hunt with a long gun from a saddle. It can work great. I love how I can stay essentially behind the tree and use the tree for both cover and a rest with a long gun. Loading a muzzleloader can be a bit tricky but certainly not impossible.
I might give it another shot this year!
Hi Allie, I enjoy your videos. When hunting with a muzzleloader in rain, snow or high humidity, you can tape the bore using electrical tape. This helps reduce the chance of moisture getting into your powder charge. Shoot straight.
For sure. Thanks for watching Kyle!
Love your videos! As a long time hunter, I’d like to make a suggestion. Clear your spot of leaves underfoot so you can move and move your tripod without making any noise. Keep the awesome videos coming!
For sure. Thanks for watching!
Such a gorgeous hunter.Good video guys,love the smiles.
01:56 You beat me to it! I didn't know what happened before you explained what happened, but I immediately recognized madd shade when I saw it! 😂
Hi Allie, I just started watching your vids recently. Your passion for the outdoors is contagious. I've been bow and gun hunting for a little over 35 years . My grandfather passed his love for the outdoors on to me, it's the Greatest gift ever given to me...I see that same passion in you. Thank you for all your informative videos.
With all that being said...I'm a WVU alumni and I think we open with Pitt this year 😉
Yes, agreed! Thanks for watching Jason. Go Pitt! Hahah
Great video definitely need to see more one thing I love is hunting with the muzzleloader
I have some old muzzleloader videos as well!
Oh Allie thats really great video .... i just love the way you guys are hunting animals ...
Hey Allie, looks like I'll miss dinner.
I love the hunt, butcher and COOKING done by you. I'm sure something will cross your path.
Good luck and be safe.
Thanks Scott. More to come!
I took a spent primer and knocked it apart and then filled the void with silicone caulk to make a snap cap to keep the powder sealed. Also, as someone else mentioned electrical tape over the muzzle will help seal the bore.
In Massachusetts for deer hunting, they allow muzzleloaders during shotgun season as well as the primitive firearms season. Then they allow archery hunting during all three seasons: archery, shotgun, and primitive. We can't use "airbows", as the regulations term it, for hunting deer.
How it is in Virginia as well
I leave my muzzleloader loaded sometimes up to 2 weeks at a time, no need to unload every day most unlined are sealed very tight
Great time in the woods… nothing can beat the feeling with nature… 👌👌👌
Absolutely right.
Muzzleloader season is my favorite. You only have ONE shot. Make it count. I didn't go in 2021. The freezer was full. I went squirrel hunting instead. There's always room for squirrels!
Good to see you back!!!
👍
Try using white teflon plumbers tape instead of grease. I shoot 10-15 shots of triple seven, and the breech plug comes right out with no trouble, and no mess ! I do swab between shots..
Thanks for the feedback!
That happens. People take your spot and you get mad. Nothing people that hunt on public land can do. At least you got a shot off at one not everyone does that. Love your vids!
Thanks for watching!!
@@OutdoorsAllie No problem I love watching you hunt.
Great video Allie keep up the good work!
Thanks for watching John!
I enjoy your posts a lot. I have been hunting for many years and this year due to component shortages everywhere I took up my muzzle loaders again. The difference is I learned to make my own powder and am having a lot of enjoyment from making and testing it. It's a whole lot easier than I thought it would be. Potassium nitrate supplies the oxygen, charcoal is the fuel and sulfur is the igniter. The potassium and sulfur I buy and I make willow charcoal. All an outdoors person like you might enjoy.
Thanks for watching and for the feedback Russell!
Great to see a younger person enjoying the outdoors. Hunting with a muzzleloader is more changeling than a center fire rifle. Not knocking your choice of rifle, but I'm more of a traditional hunter.
I hunt with a Thompson Center Renegade in 58 caliber. It kicks a little, but lots of fun. If you get a chance, try one of these old school rifles.
Great videos Allie.
Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed it!
Hi Allie..A suggestion.. Place a piece of Saran Wrap over the business end and secure the wrap with a rubber band.. This will keep the water 💦 out and you won’t miss in the future LOL..One less thing that you have to think about.. Enjoy your videos 👍
For sure. Thanks for the tip Robert!
I have a CVA, like yours, insanely accurate. Will be elk hunting in AZ. Using same powder. Federal borelock bullet.
Nice. I love it!
Pt. 2 coming up I hope. Getting into muzzle loader is fun but setting up a new muzzle loader is the hard part. Keep the videos coming please!
More to come Sean!
Great. Love my CVA, but mine is in 35 Whelen. Best trigger I have on any of my rifles.
Agreed. The Accura trigger is unbelievable!
Next time if you move in real close for the first shot like 10 15 yards to just get on paper it helps alot just knowing we're your at. GREAT VIDEO
For sure. Thanks for watching Shane!
Misses are entertaining too. You can pull a small balloon over the end of the barrel to keep moisture out. A good miss is better than a bad hit.
For sure.
Haven't seen a video in a while, nice one!
Glad you liked it!
🦌 ate it.
Beautiful 🤩
So happy I came by your RUclips channel like a week or two ago. Since I’ve watched a ton of videos and done my hunting course. Not sure how it works where y’all live, I live in Ontario Canada so I need to wait up to 15 business days for them to add my hunter course to my outdoor card. I’m so excited. Still need to buy hunting equipment and get a ton of practice in, but next year I should be hunting!
Awesome! I' happy to hear that! Thanks for watching!!
Gosh I think I'm in love
I love my accura, I've found my best success is with the Hornady sabots and I also bought the Thompson center bore cleaning patches and seasoning patches and run 2 cleaning patches down it every shot. Then I clean the breech plug up about every 5. Thing drives tacs. I only do this because when I put the gun away I always clean it so I always want my first shot to be exactly the same.
Thanks for the feedback Dan!
I appreciate your informative expertise and documentary professionalism. Thanks for sharing your experiences, Allie….
I wish you ….Great Aim & Godspeed, Many continued safety and prosperous hunting seasons , …ALWAYS.
🎯 …Waste Not… 🦌
Thank you for the kind words!
I have the cva v2 and I use the white hots and absolutely love it!
I'll have to give the white hots a try next year!
keep em cold....dont let them sweat....put it inside a vehicle or car trunk
I enjoy your videos and good Luck
Thanks Jimmy!
Taking care of it during the season, I’ve left my Knight Wolverine loaded for 4 months. Fired off just fine. And this has happened multiple years if no opportunity shows up. But, do what you feel is best. Awesome video.
Interesting. Thanks for the feedback.
Electric tape or balloons over the end of the barrel as mentioned will keep water out. Another trick I use is to put chap stick or bore butter around the breach plug to keep water out. A dab on each side of the barrel where it meets the stock by the breach helps keep it from running down that groove.
Thanks for the tips Brad!
Sorry but I would have told that dude to move on that's your stand he has no right to do that he would never get by with using someone's else's stand. here in W VA. Love your video's 🍻
What i think is cool is that muzzle loaded technology has come so far. I see all the different brands shooting awesome. Cva,traditions,t/c.!!!! I personally shoot a t/c impact. I own more t/c 's but i like the stupid cheap one because its nice to carry and it is insanely accurate. I am not brand locked. Not powder specific. Its fun to see all the different things that work. Out of my impact 150 gr. White hots and t/c shock waves almost clover leaf. My friend has a Traditions that shoots amazing . Cva bring some love to the table. Apparently big ass bullets and some quality Barrels shoot straight!!
Thanks for the feedback and for watching Brandon!!
Safety first always everyone
Great video.The Pennsyltucky (I can say that I live in Pa) muzzle loader season is a nice week before the big season. The nice thing is you can go back to bow season during the early rut afterwards. I believe you can take a spike if it is three inches or less in Pennsylvania can't you. Those might not have been. I look forward to the next chapter of the season.
Agreed. I love that muzzleloader season!
Boiling hot coffee time
the black trumpets are great in gravy for flavor, i put that on backstrap,very good
Thanks for the idea!
Blah blah hunting...Im here for the positive vibes. Thank you for being you☺😀
Glad you enjoy it!
Congratulations, I remember my days with a smoke pole.
I used a hawken 54cal with peep sights
Thanks for watching Matt!
@@OutdoorsAllie I've hunted for many years with muzzleloader. (Probably more then you are old)
If I can help, advice or tell you a few tricks. Id be more then happy to pass on what I know.
Cva muzzleloaders will never be beat. First time I shot a muzzleloader I never shot one before I went out hunting and didn’t expect anything, got a monster 9 point and bad scope eye my dad never told me not to shoot 150 grains of powder and it put me on my ass😂
Hahahahah that's a great!
Great video
Thanks Pamela!
I had lots of deer that never left a drop of blood until where they bedded up at ... Something to keep in mind and I always go carefully to where I last saw the deer and very carefully try to keep it in site from a far distance
For sure. Thanks for watching!
You guys need some clearer optics. Go check out Martin Chagnovichs videos
Hey allie, great video as usual, question for ya, do u prefer loose powder over the pellets and wats the reason?
They both have pros and cons. I will say, I think pellets are an easier entry point.
I found that Triple 7 pellets degrade from moisture fairly fast. I had bullets drop 6 inches from one season to the next. If your inline can shoot Blackhorn 209, I would recommend it. It is very stable in humidity. I pre-measure several tubes for in the field.
I love black powder rifle 👍🦌
Always a good time!
enjoy watching your video's, here are a few tips. Either carry a condom, or balloons with you put them over your barrel when raining. you'll shoot right thru them. #2 learn to shoot from a seated position, elbow on knee. Less shit to carry into the woods, and less movement setting up to shoot. Seriously get rid of the cheater sticks. I instruct every gunshooter that I teach on how to shoot from the seated position, google it. But then I'm old and that's how I learned how to shoot. Also a Penna boy.
Thanks for the feedback!!
Oh well that's why they call it hunting and not catching love the hunting videos and love black powder guns you can fix up some good loads kudos for being good ethical hunters 💥👏😉🐝
Thanks for watching 👍
What's cool about muzzleloader season is we can use big bore airguns in most states. I got to take a nice doe with my FX Impact .357 caliber. The doe dropped in its tracks. You should get yourself the new double-barrel arrow air gun by Hatsan. Shoots at 480 fps. You would love it.
I"ll check it out!!
I always unload my muzzleloader because you don't want the chance of double charging it. Also in my state you must unload the muzzleloader when entering a public highway.
Here in Michigan a muzzleloader is considered (legally) unloaded if the percussion cap or primer is removed. Charge can still be in the barrel.
Pennsylvania law is the primer or priming powder in the case of flintlock must be removed. We have a flintlock only season after Christmas. The use of inlines in our antlerless muzzleloader in October only started in the last 15 years. I can't remember what year.
I noticed when u were siding in the table was moving. I would make that table solid for next time. It will make it easier with a solid table just my opinion. Love that gun tho never seen one like that yet a break apart muzzle loader..
Been using black horn 209 since it came out. Only powder anyone should use
That's what I hear!
I've had a great experience.
I love your videos . Fun to watch. I like powerbelts in 45 also.
When using 50 cal. sabot ( say bo French ) you're just shooting a 45 cal bullet anyway. So why not go full bore with a Powerbelt.
Please keep the videos coming! 👍
Thanks for watching Michael. More to come!
Cool video! I was routing for you.I wanna see whitetail recipes on the pellet grill.
Soon to come!
Why do you think other people don't hunt in the rain ? Just curious....
I've left my muzzleloader loaded for weeks and have never had a problem, but I do use pellets.
Thanks for the feedback Jerry.
I find round balls in opposite Side of entry under the skin, sometimes, lot of times a muzzle loader shot takes me a while to find blood because of exit wound, sometimes there’s not one.
Use maxi ball
Whacker, tell me about it! These new scopes are crazy moa, like what used to take a couple of turns now takes like 20 to move the reticle. ?????
Precision I guess, but I'd rather have the old way. To me it was so.much easier.
Took me almost a half a box of 6.5 Creedmoor to get my gun in the ring and bullseye. Now we going out to pursue some coyotes tonight.
Got bless, and hey, that thing in your nose, keep it clean!!! Lol!
Ya, this one sure did take a while. Thanks for watching Scott!
Nice video 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 too bad you didn't get one but be thankful it was a clean miss 👍🏻
Yes, agreed. Thanks for watching Ronnie.
@@OutdoorsAllie you both enjoy the rest of your week
I've left mine till the next season loaded and it fires off right away. Never had a misfire at all. I use pistol powder and never had a problem.
Interesting...
@@OutdoorsAllie ya but of course I use a stainless muzzleloader not a coated barrel or blued. I'd say its not good to leave it in them. I've had muzzleloader for over twenty years.
Allie the baddie
👀👌🏽
Use a tree umbrella they work great.
Not a bad idea!
@@OutdoorsAllie ya I got mine off ebay I just set it up and you can sit no matter how hard it rains. Plus you can get the coat and bib overalls from cabelas and it's 100% water proof. I got caught in the rain one day without my tree umbrella and those kept me dry as can be. It's the Redhead brand they sell. And I can tell ya they are 100% waterproof. I love mine.
I always add a couple strips of electrical tape over the muzzle of my hunting rifles, including black powder. It does not change your point of impact at all. The air in front of the projectile blows off the tape long before the bullet gets to the muzzle. Water in the bore will change your point of impact. How far was the Doe?
Around 80 yards.
Hi Allie🇬🇪
Hi!
YEA ! PUmped you are , muzzleloader is different now !Be caution ok ,Practice ,Practice, Practce !
For sure. Thanks for watching Randy!
Your very welcome I am in Hi , plenty Axsis Deer 🤙🏽 🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌
How much powder did you use
When it’s raining I put a balloon over the muzzle of the barrel so the rain doesn’t get inside
Next time for sure!
Enjoying your hunting experiences around the country. Been shooting a flintlock ignition Pennsylvania Long Rifle, since the late 1970s and killed my first deer with one in Bedford County, PA. As you show, it is always important to fire caps or flash your pan on a flintlock but always after verifying the gun is unloaded by measuring the barrel to the breech with the ramrod. Someone might have mentioned this in the other 172 comments but always when loading/cleaning with a ramrod whether it fiberglass, composite, or wood hold your hands not at the end of the ramrod but closer to the muzzle. Use short strokes to slide it down, a little at a time, and pull it back out the same way.. Less chance of bending and breaking the ramrod/snapping it off in the barrel, or ramming a wooden one through the palm of your hand. (NRA/NMLRA Certified Blackpowder Instructor)
Thanks for the feedback Mark!
Here in Colorado we can use a .45 cal. for deer but we can not use saboted bullets.
Interesting.
Silly question I suppose but why not go out early morning versus evening?
Work...
I have had luck early morning as well though!
Might want to check ur mounts or rings for ur scope, if it took that many clicks could have had loose screws at least that's what happened with me
Thanks for the feedback Jack
Funny, I always suffered from 360 syndrome to
Check your length of pull
U and Nick use speed loaded
Allie that's the problem with public. I always try to lease a place for gun season.
Tip when leaving gun loaded, be careful taking it from warm to cold, you can get condensation build up.
Thanks for the feedback Clayton!
Have you ever thought about giving the late flintlock season a go?
Yes, that is on the list of things to do! Hopefully next year.
@@OutdoorsAllie Awesome! Can't wait to see how it goes
I've left my flintlock loaded in a shed before for the whole year and took it out on Christmas Eve to shoot it off and it shot off with no problem but I don't recommend waiting that long
I'm surprised!
Did you ever make it back to Wyoming for rifle hunt for elk? Hope you didn`t get burned out in Wyoming.
We never had the chance to make it back. Possibly next year!
throw those power belts away and hunt with a Barnes bullet in a sabot over 65 grains of blackthorn WEIGHED
Been regretting getting rid of my old muzzleloader. We just got a new after general season _traditional_ muzzleloader (no inlines, jacketed, or sabots; traditional percussion or flintlock ignition and all lead) only season here in Montana. Really looking forward to it this year. Another reason to get out there!
Sounds like a fun time!
I could never shoot with hat on
