I think it would be a fun gun to shoot, I'm just not willing to part with that much money for the chance. And the more I think about it, the remote loading tool is about the ONLY way to load it, as that stock will take a beating trying to load it between your legs, not to mention being awkward as all get out.

I have to say though, when I first considered getting into black powder, I looked REAL hard at the Cattleman..................it does have a cool look to it.
