Which Muzzleloaders?

[Ridge Runner]

OK, my go to muzzleloader is a 1992 vintage TC Thunderhawk, yeah its ugly, kinda outdated but shoots like a house a fire, have taken several deer beyound 200 yards, farthest was 267. On a good day 3 TC 250 gr shockwaves will blow one large ragged hole in a 100 yard target. was affraid I couldn't get parts for it if the need should arise so last year I bought a like new/used one for 225.00.
a couple pics
the first day I hunted with it, one buck fell at 30 yards, the other at 110

the next year, I missed this buck running on thur morn, took him fri morn

This buck was shot the last day of season a couple years ago at 208 yards, DRT

anyway look around you can buy these guns for cheap, and their replacement model the diamond back is cheap as well. the thunderhawks come standard with a timney trigger.

jon i have never heard of any prolims my brother in law bought one the only complaint he had was the triger sucked.
I would have to go with g.d about the wolf and rossi makes a combo gun with 2 or 3 barrels the 2 barrel kit goes for about 180 here i seen one here for sell at dunhams with a 243 and a 50 normaly they are shotgun muzzle loader combos unless you bought a 3 barrle combo.
I have a rossi by the way with a 243 a 12gauge and a 50cal.
Many states have regs saying no optics or no inlines youseing 209 primers.
I would check your regs good becuse for years we couldnt even use pyrodex each state is diferent.
