Please ask your questions under this comment so I can answer them in a later Q&A video.

Your scholarly approach to the sport is an inspiration. Thank you for everything that you do for the community.

If I am not mistaken the gentleman wearing the hat on the USA team is Dave Gullo who owns Buffalo arms here in the US. This business caters to the black powder community. He is a fine shot who can afford the best of whatever he wants or needs. I am 65 years old and I have never left the country and you hear of so many bad things and bad people in other places but seeing this video and the people tells me there are good places and moreover good hospitable people in them. If I ever did go somewhere overseas I think Hungary would be the place to visit...

Ein fantastisches Video über ein internationalen schwarzpulver Wettkampf ich bin begeistert Viele Grüße aus Deutschland

Your coverage of these events is most delightful! I deeply appreciate your friendly but accurate and detailed description of these black powder events. Thank You! Dave in USA

Please do more of these muzzle loader precision/ long range educational videos!!! There has only been 1 other person that I have seen doing educational videos on the subject, and that was "Idaho Lewis", an American YT channel, who did precision and long range muzzle loading (not in competitions). Most of his videos disappeared, which is sad because he was a good teacher. Some of them are still on YT, but he hasn't made any in a few years. I love all of your content but these educational ones are especially valuable to the community because people can go out and try it. Thanks, Respectfully, Joe

Such a wonderful event and excellent job of bringing it to us who could not attend in person! Hats off to you, Capandball, for your award achievements, truly, while performing host duties and competing, placing as well as you did speaks much to your detailed attention to your well refined discipline as a fine marksman! Congratulations to all! I really love how events like this tear down walls of division and bring us all together, no matter from where we hail!

Really dig your videos. Beautiful guns beautiful country and your knowledge is quite expansive.

Absolutely love and appreciate all your truely incredible content keep up the fantastic work

What a great video, and Hungary should receive a warm thanks from the United States for the help sent to the residents of Lahaina, the portable housing units. Thank you

Great to see South Africa 🇿🇦 representatives, thankyou Capandball for this great video. Keep up the good work.

Congratulations to Pieter Truter and Corena De Beer. Proudly Durbanville Shooting Club!

What a fantastic presentation of a fantastic international shooting compatition. I love how these sorts of international events bring like minded shooters together from across the planet to compet to determine who is the best shooter on the day. My deep and sicerist congratulations to all who worked to make this wonderful competition happen.👍

Thanks Nemeth ! I have been looking forward to a new program on my favorite channel! Your channel! Will save it for tonight and settle into a good chair with a goood drink. Greetings from Idar Ola, Norway 🤠🖐

Awesome!

Well done! To the competitors To the organizers To the supporters And, of course, to you, my friend for another excellent presentation

Thank you for the content. Truly one of the greatest challenges possible among marksman and you got a silver while holding an event. Bravo

Great video, I enjoyed it immensely.

This is excellent! Great job, team Hungary! You're a talented film maker, Cap and Ball. Very interesting, informative and entertaining.

Great vid Capandball. Long live the Magyars, a great people and a great nation. Raising glass of mead; Skal, salud, and mud in your eye.

Balazs, many thanks, once again, for all the interesting content you post. Thanks Richard in RSA.

Thank you for your exsplaination of the game , fantastic job setting this up

So cool to this style of competition

What an Awesome Job You All Did!

Great video! Very informative and comprehensive! Thanks!

Interesting thing about one of the starting team in this competition: from my knowladge: those are the people who started to use soft cheating style like: mixing black powder with nitro powder to get more straight trajectory of the bullet. It's thanks to them judeges started to verify what kind of powder participants are shooting with. Ofc i can't tell whitch representation I'm talikng about but black powder shooters should know :) Never the less: great video :)

Felemelő érzés,hogy ott lehettem veletek!

Outstanding video with correct information. A great useful teaching & learning video. Would be cool to attend one of these as a spectator. Thanks for posting this great event.

Congratulations!!

comprehensive and beautifully explained, I wish that I could speak Hunglish, unfortunately I only speak Engish....

Awesome video. Thank you so very much. I learn very much from your channel. I get to occasionally play with my muzzleloaders. Wish I had more time for them. I enjoy my flintlock more than my centerfires. You help keep me enthused. Thank you again.

Great video. A very interesting sport.

Beautiful representation of the event! Really good video thank you. Greetings from Austria 🇦🇹❤️🇭🇺 would love to visit one of the Events someday or just start long range muzzleloading shooting myself (:

Fantastic! Thank you very much for sharing. Congratulations and well done on winning your medals.

Very interesting video on this event well organised, a lot of helpful advices. So thank you very much ! A gentlemen’s sport 👍 Greetings from a new French muzzleloader 🇫🇷

Very excited to see this! Thank you for this wonderful video!

Hey Cap, I just wanted to give you another update 1 day later 😂. After watching your video yesterday and thinking about a Pedersoli Gibbs for some time now, I bought one yesterday! Thanks for the inspiration!. 👌

Thank you for your dedication to your chosen sport and black powder shooting as a whole. I have experienced a similar level of stress being the organiser and shooter for a high level event. It is definitely not easy. Your videos are always a pleasure to watch. Keep up the good work on your channel and enjoy your shooting.

One of the best shooting video i've ever seen !Thank You, you given to me the love of Long range shooting !

Great video on a fantastic event - very inspiring, too. Danke!

Wow, this looked like a lot of fun, and everyone seemed pleased by the challenges put before them. What strikes me is the sense of community and comradery by everyone there. Congratulations to all involved.

Desde Chile muchos cariños para los Deportistas que participaron en una interesante disciplina de Tiro❤❤😊😊😊

Very informative and interesting vid. THX awfully.

A man with a Whitworth fears no crosswind.

Fantastic! Thank You

Good times.

Thank you.

The grandchildren of Atilla the Hun ; ) Right on ! Good shooting : )

Dear sir, thank you so very much for this content. As for me i have been shooting black powder since 1977, some days on the range you feel that nothing can touch you, and other days you think why do i even bother with this, however you always learn about yourself or the rifle. I have always cast my own bullets and i think this helps to understand. I like you comment about the shooting being like shooting a mortar. I worked in a foundry for ten years and made my own coehorn mortar that fires a 355mil/12oz can of beer filled with concrete 1.2 kms over 1.500 grains of 2f powder. And YES it`s very LOUD. Kind Regards to all of you. loved all of your hunting videos on pigs and fellow deer.

Another milestone article from the incredibly talented Mr capandball - and a huge thank you from another, far less talented, shooter of muzzleloading rifles.

What a wonderful video. A huge undertaking to stage this event... admirable! I don't shoot muzzle loaders myself, but if you're back next year I'd love to be a volunteer helper/steward/coffee maker just to participate from the sidelines and to watch and learn about muzzle loading...

Thanks for the information .stay safe

Fantastic, and informative video Cheers.

Super cool ❤

Very nice

👍 Thanks for the summary!!!

I've been reading up on the different units and the variety of different guns used during the American Civil War on both sides and how the troops used them. Even here in the US, if you were to ask most could only tell you about the Whitworth and the Berdan Sharps rifles, but there were so many more different guns that were issued or even privately purchased. The 66th Illinois, known as Birge's Western Sharpshooters, were equipped with Horace Dimick plains rifles, very similar to Hawken rifles and some Hawkens were even purchased for the 66th Illinois apparently. The Confederate Sharpshooter Sergeant Berry Benson used a two band Enfield (late in the war he ended up with a Spencer), and then Confederate sniper Jack Hinson used a Tennessee gunsmith built .50 rifle that was somewhat like a Kentucky rifle with only fairly simple sights but the gun weighed some 13 pounds and proceeded to take out Union troops on transport boats on the Tennessee river at 300 yards from the bluff he was shooting from. It amazed me at how well those Sharpshooters could deliver accurate fire at long range with the sights they had. The only one who seemed to really know to get the best open sights available was Horace Dimick. He supplied 1,000 rifles to the 66th Illinois Sharpshooters, but he couldn't meet the contract with his own guns, so he bought plains rifles from gun makers all around St. Louis, which included Hawken rifles. What Dimick did was to put on every one of the rifles he supplied to the regiment a Sharps flip up rear sight that sighted in at 200 yards. Even now to this day I hear from so many who think that you need a scoped inline muzzleloader to shoot accurately past 150-200 yards. With the right bullet and powder charge, one can be amazed at the accuracy even a somewhat "primitive" gun can achieve. Even my lowly CVA Mountain Rifle, pretty much the bottom end of muzzleloaders when it came to cost and really quality has shocked me at the accuracy I can get out of it with nothing more than the old T/C Maxi bullets and 60 grains of Goex FFG.

One word: Amazing! Thx a lot! Greetings from France :)

Small thing, but the sound of the outgoing rounds is otherworldly. Never heard anything like it short of artillery.

Danke!

Thanks!

Nice❤ from India👍

I remember seeing a Civil War ' sniper rifle ' at the Smithsonian.... under-hammer, false muzzle, brass telescope sight, 50 lbs.... hoping to see something similar on your channel.

Great video as usual. Always practice on bad days so you can work out a system to beat the weather. When the scores are close, you need all the learned skills to win.

Ive never tried to shoot a black powder rifle at any distance - only modern rifles - tho the rifle i used to make my longest shot while serving in the Marines ( 1968 ) was a weapon made in 1941 Germany @ 1256meters was a Mauser 11.5mm Anti-material rifle - and yes its not a sniper weapon - but i was shooting at a car 😏

Consistency and trial and error is a lot of work. It pays off at long range. Give these shooters a lot of credit for relearning the ancient skill of muzzle loading using modern components.

This is how I felt when I hit the stump of the tree I was aiming at with my sling from about 40-50 yards away.

БРАВО ! БРАВО ! БРАВООО ! ! ! ♥️

always your vid are extents , may buenos e informativos

I enjoyed this very much.

Very cool! But what I don’t understand is why use modern aids like shooting jackets? I mean when you use black powder it’s for the historical purpose right? Might as well use modern gunpowder? To me it would be like going on a roadtrip with a 100 year old car in gore tex clothing, smart phone and a gps..

The .45 Spain made rifle at the pawn shop near me is looking more tempting.

Blessings. Go truckers and railway workers. Cleveland

So your telling me a muzzle loader is the perfect assasin weapon? No cases, no serial number, long range and affordable?

I noticed there were no young shooters there. One must need patient maturity for such competition. This would be very cool to participate in. Its probably a good thing I'm broke, LOL.

Big fan sar Watching watching Tu video India❤❤❤❤❤🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳

Expect Clark Griswold to join in the dance at any moment

Hey Cap, thanks for the video I truly enjoyed it! BTW, I know you like The Pedersoli Gibbs rifles, who doesn't 😂, but what are some other good aftermarket rfles (In Your Opinion) if you cannot find a Pedersoli Gibbs?

Watched you video on treking. You region of Spain looks like western Pennsylvania in the U.S.A. Do you ever get temps of 38 below Celsius there? Used to have an 94 Winchester in 30-30, shot moa. Had a Remington 700 bdl in 30-06, shot 1/2 moa. Now I'm shooting black powder for fun. God, I miss hunting.

be careful my friend using still wool , i use it with jack (dishes cleaner white abrasive) to dress my barrels after a built the rifle , to much use will wear the land of it , but in a competition will do it in a hurry

Freind, I also asked the channel everything black powder the question, is it feasible to mine and make your own black powder components, and to make a functional black powder in a bush c raft, survival situation?

no polish shooters?

Yep #0000 steel wool works perfectly fine over ticking patching for lead removal. I don't fool around with anything else. There is no more effective or bore safe method.

👌👌👍👍

Where can I find the sling you used

Its disappointing to hear that you don't have civilian ranges with that kind of distances in your country. Every country should promote civilian markmanship programs and have an armed populace. Ukraine is a prime example of why this is important

When are we going to get a Hungarian brutality match?

I was an individual of the former Iraqi army .... the Hungarians AK 47m was the best ..... just like Russians and Polish and may be best

No no no ... your not allowed modern shooting jackets and equipment ... with black power guns ... just doesn't look right
