Omega or Triumph
 

Hey all. Looking to get my first muzzleloader in the next couple weeks for the upcoming whitetail season in December in Ohio. I am torn between an Omega with Stainless Steel Barrel for $459 or a Blued Triumph for $359. The Omega shoulders much better than the Triumph but everyone I have talked to at the local gun shop says the Triumph shoots much more accurate than the Omega and the Triumph has less recoil. What are your thoughts or opinions?

RE: Omega or Triumph
 

I have both and shoot both, they shoot about the same both of mine are minute of angle with there best loads.
The differences I find are not in accuracy capabilities, the Triumph is a pleasure to clean by comparison and being able to pull the breach plug with your fingers can keep a minor problem in the field from spoiling your day. Lee

The Omega may take a little longer to clean but you said your self that it feels better in your hands. I feel the same way. I like the way my Omega feels a lot better than the Triumph(don't have one but have handeled a few). Also you are getting a stainless barrel with the Omega. I really don't think you will be disappointed with either gun. If I had to choose, I wouldpick the Omega again just because it feels and fits me better than the Triumph. I don't mind it taking a little longer to clean as long as the gun feels right in my hands a shoots good.My omegawill shoot one inch groups all day long as long as I do my part. Hope this helps. Happy hunting.
