I'm just wondering how people feel about electronic ignition??I think it will be a nitemare..The more components you have the more chances for failure..It wouldnt be like picken out a bad primer..Plus I think it just takes away from what muzzleloading is supposed to be about..How can something with electronic anything fall under primitive..Just think how the antis will twist this around..I think technology is good when products are developed to insure quick humane kills, but I guess now people just want it to be easy, with human error out of the equation..I kinda rambled and cant type fast enuff to really say what I think but if this is successful[I doubt] it will set a sad standard for whats to come..JMO

I remember that Remington tried something similar several years back with their centerfire line and it never really took off. I believe it'll be a short lived venture.

i dont think there any worse than any inline rifle & it states in plain english the definition of a muzzle loader "Muzzleloading
firearms are defined as those firearms
which are incapable of being loaded
from the breech" not as to type of ignition so i think they are legal,mike243

But it defines them more with this statement:
Muzzle-loading percussion cap or
flintlock rifles, handguns or shotguns
of .40 caliber (.40-inches) minimum.

I believe one could make the argument that a 209 primer is a form of percussion cap, but there is no way to argue that point with the electra.
