[QUOTE="Wolf76, post: 1785616, member: 75779"] There clearly are better systems than the variflame. I'm not going to spend $250 on a BP and modules. You are on the upper end of the muzzleloading spectrum. Custom gun (decked out) and it looks shoots great. Super cool for you. Most people don't spend $2K plus on a ML. If you step back to where most people play ($600 or less rifle) and sub 200 yards shooting distance - you realize that 1-2 moa kills a lot of deer. Also keep in mind the straight wall regulations effectively relegated muzzleloaders to black powder season (as MLs were often used in place of a slug gun). I'm well aware of Jeff, Luke, Hankins,etc They are a wealth of knowledge. I shoot a smokeless encore, so I get what you're saying. Its a moral victory just getting people to stop shooting powerbelts and pellets. IMO the variflame is a nice step up from the 209. But you need to keep the plug clean or it doesn't seal perfectly. The 209 didn't seal perfectly on any gun I've ever owned either. [/QUOTE]
