I guess I still don't see the point in a smokeless muzzleloader. If your going to go that route why don't you just buy a Ruger No 1. Its a single shot and a really nice gun and a whole lot of different cals. I'll admit, even wonder if BH209 is pushing the limits too far on muzzleloading. Muzzleloading use to be a throw back gun era and now its just as hight tech and expensive as centerfires. So I don't know. Just stick with my BH209 and see what happens.
