    Seth Isaacson on Muzzleloaders and the Rock Island Auction Company

    Visit thorbullets.com/nmlra for your chance to win a pack of premium THOR Bullets. Today we are talking with Seth Isaacson, the lead historian at the Rock Island Auction Company. While Seth has an interest in a variety of historic firearms, his personal passion and specialty is with muzzleloaders. This episode is a packed one, we talk about Seth, the best muzzleloaders of Rock Island Auction Company history, shooting with friends, and more. We hope you enjoy listening! Raised in a Victorian home in Illinois, Seth has had an interest in history and biology for as long as he can remember. Now, a young father, Seth spend a lot of his time analyzing firearms as they pass through the Rock Island Auction system. Getting a hands-on look with fine original and contemporary muzzleloaders is something many of us dream of, but that is Seth's day-to-day. Whether handling a fine rifle from Jud Brennan, or Alexander Hamilton's personal pistols, each day brings something new. Muzzleloaders don't just stay at work for Seth, when not researching and writing about fine muzzleloaders he and a group of coworkers from RIA head to the range with their personal blackpowder arms for a day of fun and friendship. From what we hear, Seth and his friends are working on converting more RIAC employees into muzzleloading enthusiasts (an initiative we can get behind!) Listen to the full episode today wherever you get your podcasts and be sure to check out the Rock Island Auction Company to see great photos of these beautiful muzzleloaders.

    Jamie Hancharick talks muzzleloader accessory manufacturing, hunting, and helping those new to muzzleloading

    Visit thorbullets.com/nmlra for your chance to win a pack of premium THOR Bullets. This week we’re talking to Knight Rifles Pro Staffer Jamie Hancharick about his muzzleloading accessory designs, muzzleloader hunting, and what it takes to get new people interested in muzzleloading. Jamie is based in the eastern United States, right on the Chesapeake Bay. Calling himself a seasonal outdoorsman is an understatement, Jamie takes every moment he can to get outdoors. It’s this love of the outdoors that got Jamie hunting at a young age. His first experiences with muzzleloaders were during Pennsylvania’s Flintlock season. Jamie was out hunting with his brother when his ball started broke, leaving part of the rod lodged in the barrel. While this misfortune ended the hunt, it didn’t end Jamie’s interaction with muzzleloaders. Jamie went home and removed the stuck starter, and let the muzzleloader sit for some time, understandably frustrated. It was this situation that helped fuel Jamie’s interest in becoming a machinist and designer.

    Eddie Davenport, editor of "The Skirmish Line" on the N-SSA, Muzzleloading, and Mental Health

    Visit thorbullets.com/nmlra for your chance to win a pack of premium THOR Bullets. This week we're talking with Eddie Davenport, the newest editor of the N-SSA's magazine, the Skirmish Line. Eddie grew up in the N-SSA and has won many of their national championships and still holds some records. It's not all competition shooting for Eddie though, he loves hunting with his muzzleloaders. From traditional sidelocks to a new inline now and then, Eddie loves muzzleloading. As the editor of The Skirmish Line, Eddie hopes to bring a fresh spin to the magazine and engage more readers with all of the cool things associated with the N-SSA. From history to firearms, tools, and trades Eddie's goal is to build on the great history of the magazine and bring it into a new era. Like all editors, Eddie brings his own perspective to the magazine. 2020 was hard on the N-SSA like it was all shooting organizations and it brought unique challenges to the young editor. Eddie's background as a first responder and EMT helps him think quickly on his feet to add new content and promote the N-SSA. When he's not shooting on the firing line, hunting, or editing, Eddie is a mental health professional. In a short time from now, he'll be a licensed therapist in North Carolina. Combining his love of firearms with mental health is important to him. "Firearms aren't the most used item for suicide, but they are the most lethal", he says, "And that's where it's important for people to know they can talk to someone who knows about guns and the shooting sports culture. When they don't have someone who understands, it can be alienating." Eddie volunteers with "Walk the Talk America", an organization dedicated to "Bridging the gap between mental health and safe firearm ownership. "Walk the Talk America" has spearheaded pro gun mental health advocacy, integrating range time as a form of therapy to help veterans and first responders use the firearms they are familiar with to aid in a patient's mental health journey. We had a lot of fun talking with Eddie and getting in deep about just about everything covered. Eddie is a great guy and we can't wait to see his work continue at the N-SSA.

    Feed Drop: The Evolution of Muzzle Loading with the Backcountry Rookies Podcast

    Listen to the full episode today Visit thorbullets.com/nmlra for your chance to win a pack of premium THOR Bullets. In 2020 we were asked to be a part of the Backcountry Rookies “Muzzleloader March” series as they share insights and history on how muzzle loaders can be used in Western Big Game Hunting to increase odds and lead to memorable hunts. It was great to talk to Chad about the history of muzzleloaders and how they have changed over time. Be sure to check out the full series from the Backcountry Rookies as they plan their custom build with NMLRA Match Sponsor Arrowhead Rifles and start hunting with a muzzleloader. This week Chad talks with Ethan Yazel from Muzzle Blasts about the  evolution of muzzleloaders. These guys dive into the origins of the  muzzle loaders and take a walk through history to modern-day firearms.  Ethan is a wealth of knowledge and explains some of the biggest  discoveries that led to today’s long-range muzzleloaders from the  discovery of gun powder by the Chinese to rifled barrels from Germany.  Ethan even talks about shooting competitions with a muzzle loader. This  is a great history lesson, and it leads perfectly into the custom  muzzle loader build show next week.  Don’t forget to check out the  Muzzle Blasts podcast and magazine to learn much more about  muzzleloaders!

  6. Bringing a Muzzleloader Only Hunting Season to Montana - Caleb Hinkle

    Bringing a Muzzleloader Only Hunting Season to Montana - Caleb Hinkle

    Visit thorbullets.com/nmlra for your chance to win a pack of premium THOR Bullets. Did you know Montana is the ONLY state in the union that doesn't have a dedicated muzzleloader season? We just got off the phone with Caleb Hinkle, a state representative from Montana who is sponsoring a bill to bring a muzzleloader exclusive season to hunters in Montana.  Read more about Caleb's bill here.  Caleb's love of muzzleloading and it's accompanying history started when he was a young boy and his father sat him down to watch the movie "Gettysburg", released in 1993. It was during that first viewing that young Caleb fell in love with American history and it’s companion, the muzzleloader. Hunters in Montana can use their muzzleloaders during the normal rifle season, but Caleb wants to reward those who hunt with “heritage” arms some extra time in the field. “It can be hard to introduce a new hunting season.”, says Caleb, “We don’t want to step on any toes. The other seasons have their time and we respect that.” Caleb’s bill, Montana House Bill 242, would give hunters using traditional muzzleloaders an extra 9 days in the field. If you are interested in watching the hearing, you can do so at 3pm Mountain Standard Time online at Leg.mt.gov. Click “Watch and Listen” and then select “Fish and Game”. You can also click here to go directly to the hearing. We’d like to thank Caleb for his dedication to muzzleloading hunters in Montana. It’s not often we hear of new muzzleloader seasons being introduced, and seeing one lead by a young man such as Caleb shows us there is a bright future ahead for muzzleloading enthusiasts.
