Welcome to the forum and to the world of Black Powder or Muzzleloaders as some will say....

We have a lot of Omega shooters out there. I am sure you will get a lot of good advise. Some of them shoot real hot loads other shoot rather mild loads. It will all depend I guess on what you want to do with the rifle..

You got a great rifle, and I think you are really going to enjoy yourself. I personally do not own an Omega. I shoot a Black Diamond XR instead, among numerous other rifles...

Good luck with your rifle..
