what's a good entry level muzzleloader? Something that is reliable, accurate and won't break the bank.

I shoot a T/C Omega but I picked up a Traditions Pursuit Pro XLT (I may not have spelled the right) for a buddy in GA last year. It shoots just as good for less --- tears holes @ 65yds.

fwsteal, i would go with .50 caliber, lots more bullet choices. i would also look into the CVA Optima as far as rifles go. break action, easy to clean, and wont break the bank. DEER ASSASSIN will testify to this also..
