I would not shoot an animal at a distance beyond my abilities and practice. Remember, im replacing a high power rifle made to shoot over 500yds with one that will shoot half that. I wont shoot more than 300yds with my high power anyways so basically im just changing the style of gun I want to shoot. I love muzzleloading so why not take it to the next level and completely drop high power?
Now lets remember this thread is about what inline I should get for shooting 250yds or so. My dads friend does this same thing with his Omega instead of using his 300 win mag.
