RE: For those who hunt with muzzle loaders
I really enjoy muzzle loader season here in Missouri and in Arkansas where I hunt you can't use a rifle only shotgun with slugs or muzzle loader. I always pick the muzzle loader. It may be a pain to clean but it is much more accurate than my 870 and shots alot farther. I have an older Winchester Apex in-line and I get much better results with a powder load than I do with the pellets. To each his own but I shot the pellets for years and last year I tried loose powder and accuracy was so much better I will never go back to pellets with that muzzle loader anyway.
