Another question you need to find out about is, are there any rifle restrictions in your area reference, scopes, projectiles, ignitions, pellets or loose powder... Also what are you going to use the rifle for, whitetail, target shooting, elk, moose, etc...

All of this would determine for me the kind of rifle I would pick. Black Powder rifles are like cars kind of. Everyone has their favorite model. Some like the cheaper model that are easy on the pocket book which is not your case, some like the sports models, other the big SUV's. In Rifles, some like Traditional rifles, others inlines. Some like big bore rifles, other go for the flat shooting kind...

What, where, how and with what projectiles, as accessorises being use, do you want to hunt?
