I've never hunted elk with a muzzleloader.. As for deer there are mixed feelings. I think in a lot of cases on deer, they push the powerbelt too hard. If I had to hunt elk with a powerbelt, it would be the biggest one my rifle would shoot, and the hardest one they make. I would go for penetration...


I wonder if the Encore would shoot Bull Shop Conicals.. I've never played with one of them. Good luck.
