Who tapes off the muzzle of your rifle when hunting in the rain/snow?

A penny ballon works well, or if you want to troll while you hunt, a condom.

 

[oremike]

Oh, rifle not ex-girlfriend, never mind.

 

[boattail]

Tape on muzzle and an inner tube slice over scope. Toss the inner tube and never look back once the action starts.

 

[TTSX]

Or an earplug. Seen it done both ways. Not sure about pressure spikes with an earplug though ...

 

[Nosferatu]

Nope. Not the least bit worried about it.

 

[Tlock]

Oh, rifle not ex-girlfriend, never mind.

That's assault brother!

 

[Certaindeaf]

I have a trained mud dauber so I'm all set.

 

[bionic knees]

Nope. Not the least bit worried about it.

I never have been either but this year is looking different, I found a place close to home with really decent access, established trails and 10 minutes from home, an old apple orchard nearby, looks like I will be putting more time in during wet weather than ever before. [eastern Oregon born and raised] I am actually looking forward to hunting this year, next door neighbor is a valley kid and has been giving me pointers.

What was old is new again.

 

[Andy54Hawken]

Don't worry none 'bout it either...
'Course I also have been known to hunt with a flintlock in the rain...without no trouble as well.

I use a condom. Multi purpose.

Careful… some consider that foreplay.

I have been on this side of the hill almost 40 years now but have been going east whenever I can draw a tag. have lived in the same place for 25 years and just now found this place, I am stoked!

 

[CO136]

Yeah, I've covered the muzzle with a piece of tape. Don't really know if it has benefited, but I feel the precaution is worthwhile...

Slipped in the mud & stuffed my barrel once in my younger days. Now I wrap that rascal with a bit of electrical tape.
