Default Hey guys!!

Hey guys, im back. You all probably dont remember me, I was around here a couple of years ago for a short time. Here is my story. 2 - 3 years ago, I bought a TC Omega, and all the stuff that I needed to get into shooting muzzle loaders. Well, I only had it a short time, (actually never even shot it) Shortly after I got it, I got back into stockcar racing after being away from it for few years, and I needed some cash for the car, so I sold the TC. Well, lets just say that, that didnt work out very well, after only a few races, I totaled my car, and I didnt have the cash to get another car, so I sold everthng.
Now I have decided that I would like to get another Muzzle loader, but I dont have a ton of $$ to spend. So anyways, can you all help me out and point me in the right direction? What would be a good beginners inline to look at? Cayugard has allready told me to look at the CVA Wolf, and one other CVA, I cant think of the name of that one off the top of my head. I was just wondering if there are any others that I should look at.

Thanks in advance!!
Darren PS, itst great to be back!!

BigDaddy, I'm just getting started myself with a 50cal. Hawken smoke pole so I'd suggest the same for youexcept in a 54cal. . That way when you get the itch for another racecar you can PM me and I'll take it off your hands . Good Luck

This time of year the Walmarts in a lot of areas reduce there stock of hunting stuff, I am watching one right now that is starting those sales and has 3 thunmb hole Omegas when they get down to between 100 and 150 I will buy one if they get low enough I would buy all and resale next summer the one I am shooting now I picked up that way 2 years ago and its a fine weapon all most as good as my new Triumph.

Dont have to worry about getting another racecar BKE. If I even mentioned it, I think my wife would use the new gun on me.

An Omega for even $150 would be a steal arouind here.

I was at my Wal Mart the other day, and they had a Omega Z5 with starter kit for $289.95 and I am sure after season the price will come down a great deal. They still had a CVA Buckhorn Magnum for $99.95 and that was all they had left on the shelves.

I bought my son's CVA wolf last November for $80.00 at Wal-Mart. The sporting goods manager is a good friend of mine and is going to give me a call when he can drop an Omega as low as he can. He said that I could get it for around $150.00

I paid 109.00 for a TC Omega z5 and 78.00 for a CVA optima Nickle at walmart two years ago. Last year some Tradition Pursuit camo/nickle went for 80.00 each.
