I don't know much about them. I know that I really like Ruger's though. I also know that I saw one at a gun show a year ago that was in pretty rough shape. The guy wanted $450 for it. It looked like at one time it was a pretty solid gun. I told him given it's condition I thought it was probably a little overpriced. His reply was that I should have seen what they went for new, but wouldn't tell me what that was. I guess I never cared to find out so haven't looked into it.
I still don't have a Ruger muzzleloader.
