I don't have a regular rifle and I don't want to shoot buckshot, so the smokepole is all I've got.

IMO, muzzleloaders are superior to slug guns. I cannot deal with the recoil and the horrible, heavy trigger on a shotgun (which was meant to be slapped, not squeezed, anyhow). A magnum capable muzzleloader with a 3-50grain pellet load or a Savage will kick the collective butts of 99% of the slug guns out there.

RE: Who's taking thier muzzy for firearm opener

Meh i love the way my benelli nova with rifled slug barrel shoots. I have taken my muzzy out during gun season but not very often. I would however love to take a deer with my 7mm rem mag but maryland for the most part is slug gun only.
