RE: idiots guide to muzzleloading?
OK - here's your top choices:
Rifle: T/C Omega
Bullet: T/C 250 Shockwave
Barnes 250 gr. Expander MZ with Harvester Crush Rib sabot
Powder: 100 to 110 gr of ffg Triple 7
100to 130 grain of Pyrodex pellets
You can use this gun with this load for just about all North American general purpose big game hunting. Follow Cayugad's advice on all the loading and cleaning procedures. Life should be good. Roskoe.
