If I could only have one inline muzzleloader it would be a Remington 700 MLS in .50 caliber.I like the way it feels as I own several Remington 700 centerfire rifles.With the green bolt tool it is easy to clean,as mentioned by a previous poster.The Remington 700 MLS has an excellent quality barrel,an excellent easily adjustable trigger(even if Remington's lawyers say not to mess with it),andthey sell for $200-$300 used.I would include a set of Leupolds QR scope mounts($75 with rings)in case I were to bump the scope hard enough to wonder if the zero was lost,allowing the use of the iron sights.I would opt for a Bushnell 3200 series 3-9x40mm scope(199 on Ebay).I have one of these that has stood up to many full power hunting loadswith no problems.I purchased my first Remington 700 muzzleloader at Outdoor World when they were clearancing them for $200.That is how I got started shooting inline muzzleloaders.I now have 5 Remingtons,1 TC Encore,1 TC Black Diamond.I think that they are a lot of fun to shoot.
