RE: sub $200 ML's?
Often, price does not equal accuracy. I have several examples of lower priced muzzleloaders that shoot well under 2" groups at 100 yards and some will shoot under 4" at 200 yards with a scope. It has more to do with finding an accurate load than the price you pay for the gun. My suggestion is to go and try several out for size and fit and decide based on that, coupled with any other factors you feel are important, whether a gun is right for you. Then find a load that the gun likes and that will do what you need it to do. And keep us informed on what direction you go.
