Default Savage Model 10ML II

Check this link out. http://www.hpmuzzleloading.com/Opinions.html
I thought it was interesting, there are some other stories on the same website that shows this rifle torn apart. Do any of you guys have this rifle?

How could any of use have that rifle, it was clearly owned by the fellow that improperly loaded it.

For those that may not know it the guys that developed the Savage muzzleloader live about 30 miles from me in Greensboro, NC...This was also posted on the NC Hunting and Fishing Forum...Looks like some folks are trying to use scare tactics to keep people from buying Savage...

Funny thing is I also belong to a Traditional Muzzleloading website where they talk about Toby Bridges trying to get round balls banned as whitetail projectiles...I've killed better than 50 deer with round balls so I know they can be effective...The interesting thing is that I have books and magazine atricles from the 70s and 80s where Toby talks about the effectiveness of round balls...It is my opinion that Toby Bridges promotes what puts money in his pocket...

Now, for your reading pleasure is the link to the NC Hunting website where 1SHOT1KILL, who actually developed the Savage answers questions about the Savage muzzleloader...Read it and develop your own opinion...I am nchawkeye there as well...

Well i guess this day and age some people will do anything for money. I thought something was fishy about that article. All the reviews that I read said it was a great rifle, alittle pricey but nice all around muzzleloader. I'm not looking to buy it just was wonder if any of you guys had this rifle and what you thought of it. I do like Savages AccuTrigger. I have it on my 17HMR, its a sweet shooting gun.

Randy Wakeman is another one to be aware of. I don't know how these guys can sleep at night.
