The last time I hunted with my muzzleloader was three years ago just as I was getting sick. I felt so bad, I only hunted 30 minutes and went home. Three days later I was in a coma.
The gun has been loaded since then (not capped). Today I took it apart and cleaned it. The breech plug came out like silk. The barrel was immaculate, not a bit of corrsion. I'm sure it would have fired without a hitch. So I lubed it and greased and put it back together and it is ready to go...if I go.

I'm afraid the recoil may be more than my shoulder can take but if it is cold enough to wear heavy clothing I may go or I may take and crossbow.

No, I use some stuff Tony Knight sent me. He just marked it breech plug and barrel lube-two different things. One is in a spray can and one is in a tube. I have no idea what it is but I figure if he uses it, it must work. Seems I was right.
