Flintlock Doe on the First day

[petey]

I absolutely love hunting the late muzzlelaoder season. It's a great time to get together with family after the Holidays and put on a few drives. We had 7 guys yesterday and all but one got shooting. It was a crisp 15 degree morning so the ol smokepoles were going off good. I took this MEGA huge doe right around the 100 yard mark with my T/C Renegade shooting 90 grains of 777 and a 240 grain Hornady XTP sabot. I was trying out the new Tripple Seven this year since I was out of my FFF and FF and my dad offered me a can since he bought surplus of the stuff. Shooting it on Christmas eve it seemed to shoot in the same spot, but just from my experience it seems to be a slower burning powder? Not too sure if it's that or just takes a bit more to ignite. I kills them just the same though. I will say it's A LOT cleaner. Run a couple wet rags down and a few dry ones and she's shining. In any case I got a veal for the New Years
