Muzzleloaders.. Little help

[Reddirt24]

My next big hunting purchase will be a muzzleloader. I was just wondering which guns yall recommended and of coarse going to be easy on my wallet?

Easy on the wallet. Go with CVA.

 

[Model70Man]

CVA will be easy on your wallet for sure. After owning 2 CVA's, I handled and shot an Encore and that's all I wanted. Ended up selling the CVA's and bought an Encore. I would highly recommend it.

Don't just settle on a ML because of price, you will get what you pay for. I have heard and seen many times the effects of buying an inexpensive weapon only the hear and see the owner complain it did not live up to the expectations he/she thought it would or it is not as good as so & so's.

Look around, there are deals all the time.

I really like my T/C Omega (lam stock, SS barrel)

I would definately recommend SS over blued, you will not regret that choice.

Personally, I don't thing the Savage smokeless is priced all that bad, It would be the last ML you would ever have to buy.

I like the Knight disc
It can be pouring rain and they will still fire
And you can find one with SS barrle that wont set you back to much
I got mine used from a fellow TN deer gent for less than 200 and it is a sweet rifle

I have a CVA Kodiak and a thompson center omega. They are made very similar but i choose to hunt with the omega any day over the kodiak.

I've got a CVA Kodak in SS and it will shoot one hole groups at 50 yds with the Hornady FPB bullet!I love my kodak!

I've used CVA,knight and traditions. I did not pay an outragious price for any of them and have no complaints about any of them either.

I have a Knight wolverine with the thumbhole stock. I think the most important thing is to pick one out with a good twist. At least a one in twentyeight. Next pick one that is going to be easy to take apart and clean. Everybody will have a different opinion just take the time to look around.

Omega, or the new triumph.....hands down.

 

[cuppedup50]

[tp524]

[BIGORANGE]

Thompson Center Encore, Triumph, or Omega!!!

cant go wrong with a knight....its the ONLY kind of mzl i will ever own.

not a big fan of the knights.
we have a $90 cva eclipse hunter that shoots as good as any muzzleloader i have ever seen. you don't have to spend $600-900 to get a good servicable gun.

 

[deerjackie]

knight dxt and i have a load formula that shoots well in mine.you will like this gun.

i just got a remington genesis syn stainless. even though i've heard a lot of people grip about them this thing is great. shoots 300 grain hornady xtps and 150 grains of powder consistantly accurate. (FYI it hates powerbelts) actually shoots better with 150 grains of powder than 100. got it through cabelas for $215 shipped to my door. I was looking at a CVA optima pro but for the money i decided to give the remington a try and i'm glad i did. I've heard it is made by traditions which as most know doesn't have the greatest fan base but i really am a fan of this gun.

The Knight Vision is a good one,it breaks down like a single shot shotgun and is totally waterproof,real easy to clean too,whatever you do go stainless steel.
