[QUOTE="pooldoc, post: 1167088, member: 53618"] I think you will really enjoy that rifle. If I were in the market for a new muzzleloader today, it would be the Mountaineer or Ultra Light. I have 2 Disc Extremes and one Disc Elite' all 50 cal. and all converted to bare primer. If I do my part, all are capable of sub MOA 3 shot 100 yard groups. All have adjustable triggers set at 2 lbs. Over the past 10 years I've tried 777, Pyrodex and Shockey's American Gold and BH209 beats them all big time. It's easy to clean up and is very consistent; I weigh all my loads. I'm shooting Harvester's 300 and 260 gr PT Gold bullets, their black crush rib sabot and Winchester regular 209 primers. I use 110 gr. for the 300 and 100 gr for the 260. by volume, not weight. My personal limit is 200 yds. Remington shows a 14 inch drop at 300 yds. in their ads. Not my cup of tea even with a 300 Weatherby. Lots of helpful info on the web. Take a look at Vortex scopes before you buy. Lots of quality at a reasonable price. Enjoy. [/QUOTE]
