I've never elk hunted with a
muzzleloader. In my youth I traveled quite a lot hunting elk, moose, bear, even mule deer but always with center fire rifles. When I got into the muzzleloader end of my hunting, I stayed pretty grounded and hunted lots of deer and small game but have yet to make it out west again for elk. I would like a guided hunt where I go in on horse back and they do all the work.
