Re: MtMan-List: Start out with what you can afford...

Corey,

You just saw Tom Crooks refer to them as "Dixie Junk Works". There is a reason for this sentiment and I agree with him.
Now I am sure that Dixie may have some things that are not available from someone else but with this outfit you really
have to be careful just as we have been trying to advise the newer members of our fraternity to be very careful when they
think they are going to get into this sport for very little money. Buyer beware! I personally think the advise 'to save
for the best you can afford and then save some more' is the only way to go. Going inexpensive will often cost you more in
lost function and reliability and surely in satisfaction than you saved. Then too, Dixie is not a cheap place to buy
things "muzzle loading". They are very proud of their "stuff". Did this help? I remain.....
