Traditional Muzzleloading on the Cheap

I am undecided but leaning toward full stock.

Come on We have 83 members, there should be at least 83 votes!

I have one full stock and three half stock.  For looks I like the full stock, but for hunting I think I prefer the half stock. 

What's a Berkshire Hattahway stock?

Berkshire Hathaway is owned by Warren Buffett.  Its a conglomerate and is trading at $111,900.01 per share!!  It lost $3200 yesterday.

Thanks Bull.

Always prefered full stocks, like the looks and feel better.  The half stock has some advantages though, just one is the ease of take down for cleaning.  How ever, I own more half stocks than full.

I think long rifles have a certain eye appeal, but all I've ever owned / used are half stocks

didnt he sing "MARGARITA VILLE   ;D ;D ;)'

close................lol!

I like the Berkshire-Hathaway stock. Very spendy to buy, but sure to increase in value. 

Wish I could get some......its down to $116,900 (-$600) right now

The full stock is what I have the most of now I think they look gracefull and are beater balanced.

I like the looks of a full stock but all my guns to date are half stock. I'll have to remedy that situation one of these days.

I like full stocks for flint and half stocks for percusion.

Full stock for me easier to look at I suppose more to decorate ifn you like that sort of stuff. I have a full stock pennsylvania which has loads of character from years of use.Looks really used!!! I also have a dixie po'boy which is a nice looking rifle, but I may part ways with it cause its a leftie and I really dont need it, just an impulse buy I guess. I own Hawken style rifles and even a underhammer with a little forearm cause really muzzloaders are like women they are all nice to look at!!!  thmbsup

Like the look of the full stock slim flint locks & Kentucky rifles, but have only owned 1, currently own half dressed ladies.

fullstocks

Fullstock for me... can't say why but they just have character.... something about running your hand up the long thin strands... oops wrong topic.... hdslp

Maybe a better one though.

I like the look and feel of a full stock.

For a large caliber rifle the half stock does it for me, but when it comes to squirrel rifles the looks of a full stock are best.

I'd say half stocks for me, but you never know how my likes can change over time.

All of the above! I have a FS flint daily shooter, a half stock seldom shooter, one just off the bench for the nephew 1/2 stock, 2 on the bench 1/2 stocks (one for son one for me?)  a full stock flint in the holding pattern (1/2 done), and a flint pistol. I just like them all. I enjoy making the full stocks more if that counts for anything. I hate those nipple drums, and dislike the barrel ribs. Wait  I'm getting off track........ hdslp

 I have both full stocks and half stocks and really have no preference between them. Its not an issue with me.
