Am I off-base here, or should we expect more consistency from a brand of muzzleloader than that? I know we all say, "thisrifle likes this", "An this un likes this", "Oh and this un will shoot about anything you stuff down it" It seems to me that there is very little effort payed to producing weapons which perform consistently. To make matters worse, we as consumers almost uniformly accept this about muzzleloading rifles giving the manufacturers, basicly, a free out, to defects in workmanship, settling on good enough or marginally huntable.

I've certainly been thinking about this. If the gun did not shoot saboted bullets as well as it does I would probably send it in to TC. I still may if the PBs do not perform.
Fillae, if you send it back to T/C, be sure and tell them in the first sentence that you know that they've been sending alot them back unrepaired because they shoot a decent pattern with shockwaves. Also let them know that T/C advertises the Omega as a suitable choice for conicals. And that you don't want it back until they can make it fit for the purpose you need and the purpose they advertise it for.

Good luck if you do, Phil
