Buying Muzzleloading Equipment

Post by tsum » Fri Nov 06, 2009 7:41 pm

Does anyone have any ideas on which muzzleloader me and my dad should buy? We want a cheap gun that has a great value shooting wise. We are first time muzzleloader hunters, so any help or advise would be great. Thanks

Dont know what you consider CHEAP but you should check out CVA there decent, lots of different Muzzle loaders to choose from and you may want to look at used ones too.

I would not ever use "cheap" as a criteria in buying a firearm, however if value is the term, does not get any better than the T/C Omega! See what feels best to you, but the Omega is what felt right to me. I had a CVA and about gave up the muzzy from discouragement until I shot a real one. Check out the customer reviews on CABELA'S WEBSITE The Omega has 4.9 out of 5 stars after 58 customer reviews; that is pretty good. Good luck!

Sportsmansguide has some good deals right now. They have an Optima for $189.99 that is a killer deal. I'll be honest, the Wolf for $279.00 is awesome. A guy had one out this year hunting and I really liked it. Like all CVA's they have the top of the line Bergara Barrels on them. Cant go wrong there.

That's a real nice one if it's the Wolf! It felt great when I picked it up.
