Well I bit the bullet. Today I have bought the CVA Accura LR w a leopould scope to mount on it. I ended up getting the 290 grain Barnes spitz fire T-EZ bullets that I'm gonna try and push with IMR white hots. I'll post pictures when I get some results. Just hoping this is the round to drop a...

Great groups, except I'm sure the Express BP cost is more than i can sneak away from the wife. Im still getting asked why i put in for the ML hunt when I didnt have a ML. HaHa, SO I CAN BUY A MUZLE LOADER, didnt fly vary well. But since I may have an idea on the bullet and gonna try the...

Thanks for the response. I am familiar with ballistics and long range shooting in the CF world and understand the importance of good glass. But I'm just looking for info on loads and the ease of use and user friendly ML's at the moderate priced level. Also if someone has one of the CVA Accura...

I'm new to the ML world but have no choice now since I drew an early AZ elk tag. (18 years of waiting) so now that Im being "forced" to get a muzzleloader. I'm thinking I'd like something that can reach out to the 300 yard range on the big end and realize that's about the breaking point of...
