M/l that uses smokeless powder

[LA man]

Who makes them and what's good and bad about them

This topic would be more appropriate in the Smokeless section.

Savage is the only "stock" smokeless muzzleloader, but they aren't currently producing them to my knowledge so you would have to find a used one.

A lot of people have conversions. You can take a Remington 700 muzzleloader and have a customer barrel put on it that will take smokeless pressure. Or, you can take any single shot 45/70 rifle and have it drilled and tapped for a Savage breach plug. If interested in details, I would post it in the smokeless section here.

I have an Encore 45/70 conversion and love it.

Take your pick if you got deep pockets. The NULA is about the least expensive at $1800 and only weighs about 5lbs. I got one and would not trade it for any of them.

This is by far the cheapest route to go....the accuracy has been outstanding with these H&R Conversions.

i have killed several over 200 and one at 292 yds

they will work for the cheap

also most normal ml shots in tn are 100 yds or less why some one wants to clean a ml is beyond me

Not that I am aware of. Most pack a collapsable or screw together and have it at the ready after they set up.

How's the trigger on the H&R?

Some are good and some suck. They can be lightened up BUT only let a EXPERIENCED H&R guy do it!
They are easy to screw up by taking away to much material.
