Have had mine 2 weeks now. Fired 200 thru it so far. I must say, it is very accurate, and a joy to shoot. I have also started using Blackhorn 209 powder and am equally satisfied with the result. This rifle is very easy and quick to clean. The weight is light, so it is very satisfying to carry in the field. The factory sights are great, and it is tapped for a scope if so desired. Was it expensive ? ... Well that depends on how rich you are, as mine was 475.00. But I figure, it will be the last muzzleloader I will have to buy in my lifetime. Well worth it.
I would recommend it to all.
My pet load; 100gr Blackhorn 209, a TC Shockwave 250gr.
