Re: scoped my hawken
Is that just strapped on? Can you still use it during the late season in Pa. like that?

Re: scoped my hawken
PA flintlock season proper is open sights only with hi-vis type/fibers permitted as far as I know. While I do think some old school brass tube scopes of quasi period correctness should be allowed, as far as I recall from past years no optical sights are permitted for the flintlock season to hunt.

How the recoil on that thing? I've never fired a muzzle loader, flint, perc. before.

Re: scoped my hawken
Depends on the amount of power you use and the type of ammo. Round ball I use 70 grain and for sabots and maxi balls I use 90. I didn't hold the gun right a couple times and ended up with a baseball sized bruise on my shoulder for a few days. Recoil is a little more with the shaped ammo than the round balls. Its about the same as shooting a 12 gauge IMO.

Re: scoped my hawken
If you want to defoul a perfectly fine rifle.....get an inline. Just my opinion.
