RA. I totally agree and if I had a savage I would go ahead and use it. I have never even seen a Warden out and around during the Muzzle loader season. It runns from mid Dec until the end of Jan. Thier year is pretty much over by then. I have not pickedd up a Savage yet but I most likely will. I quess you can also shoot regular Black Powder loads in them as well. Good hunting all.
