I must be the freak in the bunch.

I use Remington's Model 700 inline muzzleloader. I originally bought a Knight 5 years ago but didn't do my homework well enough as the ignition wasn't legal.....back it went(sob!) I'd always shot Remington back in my modern rifle days and since they(at the time) were introducing a "Washington-legal" muzzleloader line, I gave it a go and have used it ever since. It's been a good accurate rifle and has accounted for 4 deer in 5 years.....all one shot kills.

I use #11 caps, Pyrodex RS at 100 grains and Knight 50 cal. & 260 grain bullets with a sabot.

Laughably, I didn't even know about musket caps until a friend showed me his this fall. Definitely bigger and would appear to generate a hotter ignition. I understand they are adaptable with a simple change of the nipple. Might have to look into this.

Thanksgiving tomorrow and then 3 weeks in the woods!!! One thing about this weather; crappy for fishing, great for hunting!

Good luck to all, maybe I'll see you out there if you hunt the coast. beer
