I just bought a Savage 10ML2 this year, May 1, 2007, have not hunted with it yet, but i am sure it is a shooter from my bullet selection, which is documented here:

http://www.the-gleasons.com/this_is_my_savage_10_ml_page.htm

I have the SS with a 3x9 Busnell Elite 3200 scope, tupperware stock, Warne Steele rings and I shoot AA 5744, 44g in it. You can't go wrong with the Savage, they shoot 1.5" at 100 yards out of the box. They will shoot BP or subs, but it is realy not designed for that. I love theSavage so far because of it's accuracy.The best Source of Savage info is here: http://www.chuckhawks.com/index2h.muzzleloader.htm

The tupperware stock, the removal of the frontscrew and the cleaning of the breech plug are my only negatives. I have a Knight Disc, my first ML, I hunted with it 5 years, then I bought a TC Omega and hunted with it 3 years, now I have mySavage. I like them all, and they are all good shooters, I would say the Savage is the most accurate, but the TC and Knight are right behind it, and not by much, maybe .5 inch. Your going to have to buy some powder scales, but other than that it is pretty close to inline ML hunting (1 killing shot), only you don't have to clean your gun every time you shoot it.Best Wishes on yourSavage selection.
