Your Accura's are most certainly single shot Rifles!!! How can you not say they are rifles, are the barrels smooth bored? They might not be cnterfire rifles but they most certainly are rifles.

I personaly would not hesitate to shot a deer at 300 with my 50 cal Muzzle Loader that I built on a Rolling Block frame. I routinely shot to 335Yards at the farm for fun.

But this has nothing to do with The Breech Plug.
Your right, the ML is a Rifle, and it will get out there, but it's still a ML, it will never have the long range velocities as a rifle and it will never have a clip with more than one shot, and have you ever had to worry if your Rifle was going to go off in the Pouring Rain or Sub Zero Temps? And I know this has nothing to do with the BP, I was just quoteing Sabotloader as to why I did'nt want to buy a APEX with the better BP as the ACCURA's.
And I have nothing against anyone who uses a Rifle, I just prefer the 1 shot, and yes you get 1 shot with a Rifle but you also get another if needed to back you up fast, you dont get that with a ML.
Plus if I Rifle Hunted I would'nt be on this Forum, with them you just load and shoot, where's the fun in that or how much more can you learn. I like MLing because you can never learn everything or know too much.
