200 yrd shoots with a muzzle loader that has the accuracy required at that range can be done with consistancy, IF YOU DO EVERY THING YOU NEED TO DO. You must first work out a drop chart for you gun, 25 yrd. setting to 150 yrds. then 10 yrd. settings from there out. You will also have to lazer your target, a good guess is not good enough. Then you need him to stay put while you get every thing ready and shoot. 2 yrs. ago I took a buck at 289 larzed yrds. , but I have to admit it was more a lucky guess than a planned shot. I would not have shot, but he had been hit and he stopped right beside a tree I had just lazered. I had a rest and guessed the drop correctly and double lunged him.
