When you want a complete answer. You need to give more info. Just like if he walked in a gun shop for a gun. they would ask the same questions I did. Most of you are recommending guns and loads, and you don't even know if he can use them in his state.
You people just love wrecking a thread, don't you, as far as recommending a load anyone with any muzzleloading experience can give load recommendation for balls, conical, or sabots that would kill any deer. He is just looking for a place to start. As far as I am concerned I gave him recommendations for a break action gun, If someone has any other suggestions for a bolt action or traditional gun I am sure he would be open to suggestions. I appears to me OP would be better off walking into a gun shop to try to get information on muzzleloaders, seems to me only a few posts offered any information here.
