Knight ,Ruger, Thompson/Center & Savage are all good muzzleloaders. Remington 700ML's I have heard mixed feeling about them. CVA & Traditions are okay.Today's modern ML's have to be good or they won't be around long in today's market.Winchester is releasing a new in line also.You have the cheaper models up to the expensive ones. Look them over and see which one fits you the best. You will have to decide if you want a In Line or a traditional ML. Check your states regulations to be sure it's legal to hunt with. I believe PA. you can only hunt with a Flintlock.Talk to people who have different rifles and see if you can shoot with them.I have a Knight Disc and really like it.I bought a New Ruger but haven't shot it yet.I have friends who have the Ruger's and they are all very happy with their performance. Hope you find what you are looking for. Ruger Redhawk
