I'm not sure a pro/con list is of any real value. From a pure effectiveness standpoint the cons outweigh the pros by a fairly wide margin because muzzle loaders can't match a 30-06 in energy, trajectory, range, or speed of a follow up shot. ML hunting either tickles your fancy or does not. It tickles mine bunches.
