I'm looking into getting a new ML. I don't want to spend much. I don't need anything fancy. I usually hunt with a rifle or bow. We just have a short 2 week ML season in Dec. and I'm looking for a way to do some more hunting. I've shopped around and found the Optima for $180 and the Kodiak for $230. I don't have a lot of experience shooting muzzleloaders. Just wondering if anyone has had experience with either of the two. Any input would be great. Thanks.
