With the weather they were high and the muzzle loader seemed to cotton to that. And there's the reloading issue. I had a campaign chair as a gift from my mother-in-law that I used as a make shift reloading station. One can really go thru some powder. And occassionaly during a rush you get a weak one and sometimes a strong one from a double dollup somewhere. If anyone is interested, I can tell you what not to do.
