White Super 91. I have taken Both Whitetail,Mule deer and a Bull Elk with that white. I want something that will be similiar to it and be a consistent performer,ultra reliable and stout and shoot huge bullets at 1200 fps.

I think White is still in business try searching for www.whitemuzzleloading.com. I have a friend in Illinois that picked up a White used and is really impressed with how it shoots heavy bullets and also can shoot multiple shots without swab between shots. Most newer inlines will not do that unless you use one of the super clean powders like American Pioneer or the newest entry that I love Black Mag'3. If you are in Colorado I believe there are still limitations on what you can use for bullets and primers. I think smokeless is not legal either so that would rule out the Savage which I also considered but eliminated as Arizona does not allow smokeless either. The NEF barrel is a consideration but I would check with someone that knows as there may be a cut-off in serial number as to where it will work with some actions. It is likely going to be a sabot shooter in twist so you may not be able to shoot heavy conicals some inlines do some don't. I have not tried heavy conicals in my Omega other than Powerbelts and the 348gr. ones shoot very good in it at least up to 100 yards. After that you have to talk to someone else as I don't try to shoot farther than that.
