I have a old T/C Renagade .54cal. There is alot of fine Smokepoles out there, First thing I would do is think about what type? FlintLock, CapLock/SideLock, In-Line. the reason is some States MuzzleLoading Seasons require specal types. Like PA' s season is for FlintLock, But you can use any type for Firearm season. Good Luck. and Welcome to the World of Smokepole Hunting.
