With the forecast showing 90% rain for Friday I started thinking about keeping my muzzleloader/powder dry. So tell me, what do you do special to keep from having damp powder ruin your hunt??? op:

They were free and me and my buddies rolled them over our muzzle loader and rifle barrels when it was raining or snowing. Just put a rubber band around them to hold them on. The women at the health dept. thought I was a stud until one finally asked what I was doing with so many condoms. When I told them they cracked up laughing and just gave me a paper bag full so I didn't have to keep coming back!

Mine has always went boom. CVA has some barrel covers that look like well let's say balloons.
