here in alabama we now have a muzzelloader season that starts 5 days before gun season. I have a large buck pinpointed during daylight hours. I am thinking about buying a muzzeloader to take advantage of the first five days. If i buy one it will come from bass pro most likely, its the only good store around. I would then go to the range on saturday to become comfortable with it. Season starts monday. I need to find out if we can use a scope here in alabama. What do yall recomend for a first timer who knows 0 about muzzeloaders. Dont want to spend to much, but i dont buy junk either. I want something simple. Gun will be used first five days and then put up untill first five days of next year. Thanks Guys!!
I think the CVA Wolf is the gun for your situation - and I am NEVER wrong.

i agree the triumph and omega bdc or none bdc scope. Or the omega and the omega scope. A perfect combo either way. Not just because i have one but because both are 250 yard guns with the omega scope. you will read many people are getting 2 inch or even 1 inch groups out and pass 200 yards.

The TC's are undoubtly good rifles but probably more $ than you want to spend. The CVA Wolf or Accura are good guns and can shoot as well as any T/C. If scopes are legal, don't 'over power' your ML. A good 4x or 1.5 - 4X or 2 - 7x would be a good choice.

I think, IMO, that you all are missing the bigger picture here.
Adding a gun to collection is a necessary thing people. The thread should NOT have started out with "I MIGHT need a muzzel loader", it should have started out with "I AM GETTING a muzzel loader", what should I get.
For the record, I don't have a muzzel loader myself so I look forward to more responses and advice.
