Choc WMA Primative Weapons Hunt - 11/12/18 06:57 AM
Mon, Tues, Wed, Thurs is Choc WMA BP hunt, doe or 4.+ buck, hunters choice.
As everyone has seen on the news, nothing but rain, 100% Monday and most of Tues, and I think even more Wed.
I ONLY hunt with my BP rifle during gun hunts, but hunting in the rain sucks on the pellets.
When they get wet they somewhat fall apart.
Last year I went out in that heavy snow storm we had, didn't see a thing, and when I unloaded one of the pellets crumbled on one end. I even had tape over the barrel and taped over where the gun breaches, and still they got damp.
Anyone else notice the pellets crumbling when wet?
Will they fire correctly when wet (as in both pellets fire at once)?
Still undecided if I am going at all Mon/Tues.
Would hate to have a shot and pull the trigger and have some weird delayed explosion.
