Can you leave Triple 7 Loaded overnight? What about 7 Days? | Muzzleloader Hunting Myths Tested

Описание: Learn more at ilovemuzzleloading.com

Every year we are asked "Can I leave my muzzleloader loaded overnight?", "Do I need to unload my muzzleloader after hunting?", and "How long can I leave my muzzleloader loaded?".

I'll be leaving my percussion rifle loaded with triple 7 for 1 day, 3 days, and 7 days to compare the results while documenting the experience for you at home.

In this test, I hope to answer some of those questions and provide some inspiration for your own testing as we let my flintlock muzzleloader sit overnight to see if it will shoot the next day. I provide the weather conditions for the day for you to compare with your local area. This test was conducted in October in the Midwest, we saw rain, sleet, fog, and temperatures as low as 30 and as high as 70.
