RE: traditional or inline?
I have three muzzloaders. I have a traditional style Lyman Great Plains Rifle, caplock. I have a T/C Whitemountain Carbine caplock which has a fast twist for shooting conicals and sabots. And I have a newly purchased Knight Revlolution, inline with 209 ignition. The jury is still out as far as I'm concerned on the inline. It is a fine gun and shoots incredibly accurately. To me though, it seems like it is getting away from the reason to have a black powder season in the first place. I am not sure that I'll keep this gun. I will hunt with it next season and see. I know that I enjoy shooting my traditional muzzloader more.
