I prefer conicals over saboted bullets; however, I shoot several different types of bullets. It seems every since the inline muzzleloader has caught on people are constantly trying to get high-powered rifle performance from a muzzleloader. There is absolutely nothing wrong with trying to get the maximum horsepower of the ML's but you eventually come to the point of diminishing returns. That in turn has led to nitrocellulose/smokeless ML's and that spectrum of performance. I said all that just to say I would have thought that those rifles with the QLA off centered would have the barrels replaced by TC; however, the manufacturers cater to a majority thus sabot shooters. Anyway y'all have a good day.
