Default RE: Breaking into muzzleloading

I personally think a starter pack is a waste of money. Pick the rifle you want. Get the accessories you want. And have the kind of rifle you want at the price you can afford. The Wolverine is a great rifle. The Omega is a good rifle also. Check your Wal Mart. They had the same Omega Z with a starter pack for under $300.00. There are a couple things in that starter pack that are worthless. The bore butter and the T/C #13 bore cleaner I have little to no use for. And the other bullets are just window dressing.

They also had a brand new CVA Buckhorn Magnum .50 caliber for $99.95 today. I asked to handle it. Then told him he better take it away from me before I do something stupid. What a nice rifle to shoulder and handle. It actually had pretty good hardware to barrel fit. And the grips on the stock were a nice touch. But I kept telling myself, you own a Staghorn. Go home. Shoot Staghorn... and left the store.
