Both the Impact https://www.tcarms.com/firearms/muzzleloaders/impact
and the Triumph https://www.tcarms.com/firearms/muzzleloaders/triumph fall within your price range. Both rifles have open sights if required or necessary. T/C rifles are all capable of shooting black powder or its substitutes, including BH209. There is no requirement to change breech plugs. The T/C rifles have breech plugs which flash channels are cleaned by turning a 1/8" drill bit by HAND. Very good rifles, with many happy owners. |

CVA Optima V2. Reasonably priced, very accurate, can remove breach plug with no tools, easily cleaned. You won't go wrong with this one !

Good luck. |
Thanks everyone for the recommendations so far.
The nearest store that would have a variety of muzzleloaders for me to check out is 50 miles away, so I wanted a starting point on what to look at. I think I'll be looking at the CVA Accura v2 (regular and mountain gun version) and the T/C Omega. I will probably try to get my husband to use this gun too. He's all about centerfires right now but if he could get an extra couple of days hunting with a ML, he'd try it. :) He works at Barnes, so that's why I'd be shooting Barnes bullets. :D |

Go shoulder a few with your hunting clothes on. You will quickly see size does matter. ;)
What fits in a t-Shirt will likely feel clumsy after a few layers of clothes. |
My brother has the Accura V2 and absolutely loves. I shouldered one and didn't think it fit me. So I tried and bought the Optima instead. My favorite powder is White Hots.

I bought an inline as I had a few side hammer rifles. What I was looking for was a used gun so I could conduct my Hunter Ed Classes.
I decided to shoot this a bit. And I found out they are way more fun than anything I had anticipated. Good luck Christine. You will enjoy the rifle. You have further questions there is a great group of very knowledgeable people here that will help you out. JW |
