This has given me a lot to think about.
If they will not hold up to cleanly harvest deer....then I don't want them.
May have to regulate them to someone with a 45 cal. pistol.
Have shot traditional muzzle loaders for approx.: 40 yrs. These in-lines are a new learning curve for me. But the upside is....look at all the shooting that I get to do.
Guess that I will look for a 250 gr XTP mag
