192 - Competitive Muzzleloader with Barry Brakebill
In the world of competitive muzzleloading shooting, one name stands out above the rest. Barry Brakebill has won multiple National Championships in several disciplines of muzzleloading rifle competitions.
Today we will break down the details it takes for someone to achieve elite level of competition shooting. Where perfect scores are required to even place in the money, getting perfect X shots are required to win.
Barry breaks down the importance of powders, rifles, projectile differences, and how the barometric pressure will affect bullets in flight.
But Barry Brakebill is also one of the most dedicated followers of Christ I know. His passion for Jesus is contagious and we have a great conversation about his faith and how it sustains him and is the center of his life.

A lifelong lover of God’s creation, Jon is an avid whitetail deer hunter and outdoorsman. His passion for the outdoors has also led to years of involvement in the outdoor industry, including serving on the CVA Pro Staff team. For Jon, hunting is about much more than the pursuit—it’s an opportunity to slow down, enjoy God’s creation, build relationships, and recognize the connection between faith and the outdoors.
Whether preaching from the pulpit, recording weekly devotions with Christian Outdoors, sharing his testimony at a sportsman’s banquet, or simply gathering around a campfire with fellow outdoorsmen, Jon enjoys connecting with people and pointing them toward Jesus. For Jon, faith, family, community, and the outdoors are opportunities to serve, build relationships, and give God glory.
Jon would love to connect with your group for a men’s gathering, sportsman’s banquet, church event, or conversation about faith and the outdoors. He can be reached at jon@christianoutdoors.org.
