This video tests the extreme long-range accuracy of a Thompson/Center Encore muzzleloader, pushing it to 500 yards. It highlights the performance gains from modern bullet technology like the Hornady ELD-X Bore Driver, achieving a 500-yard hit on a water jug. The test demonstrates that with proper setup and ballistic calculations, muzzleloaders can be effective hunting tools at significant distances.

This video, the final part of "Moonscape Backpacking" by Nutnfancy, focuses on creating a primitive wilderness spear using a Buck Hoodlum knife. The creator, Tom Sawyer at heart, details fashioning a spear from a fallen tree and testing its durability and balance by launching it into the snow. The Buck Hoodlum's digging capabilities and an improvised icebox are also demonstrated. Due to Time Calorie Energy (TCE) limitations, other planned activities like snowcaving are postponed. The video concludes with a quick review of the Jansport Carson backpack used for the trip, highlighting it as a valuable piece of gear. The series is dedicated to Ron Hood.
