I hunted with a muzzle loader for going on 20 years in Mb. I had a Knight USAK .50 caliber. No idea if there still available. I used 2 - 50 gr pyrodex pellets with green sabot & 240 gr HP(hollow point) bullets.I shot several bucks out to 90 yds, could have shot them out to 125 yds for sure but that's the further kill shot I did. Recoil I figured was like shooting a 30-30. I always used a scope as my eyes weren't that young anymore. Buddies used Traditions, Encore.
