Hello, I'm completely inexperienced with muzzle loaders, but looking to get in to the sport. I basically want to find a good quality but plain Jane working rifle. I'm interested in both Flintlocks and percussion rifles right now. Whether it is production or custom doesn't matter to me, but it needs to be quality. I'm willing to spend what it takes, but if the price were to be from $1000 to $1600 that would be preferred. I want something in 58 caliber preferably. This rifle would be for elk, and hopefully one day black bear.
Thanks.
Thanks.
