Am trying to any reports about this ML. Thinking of getting one to use here in WA State and also use in AZ for a upcoming elk hunt with a scope. Any thoughts good/bad etc. Also any thoughts on bullets/powder etc for elk up to a 200 yard shot. Thanks in advance.

I got mine this December and shot it a couple weeks ago.  Absolutely awesome first time ever shooting and muzzy.  It has interchangeable breach plugs so you can go with 209's in AZ and then switch out to the 10 or 11 cap breach plug....holes are tapped for a scope but you can't use a scople in WA.  I used 209's and triple 7 pellets I am going to use triple 7 powder with the 11 caps.  I really like mine.

Had one for 8 years or so.  Killed a deer every year but one and I didn't get a shot off that year.  Of the 7 kills, only one required a second shot.  I haven't shot anything else, but I haven't had a reason to either.  I really like mine for what it does - sits most of the year and kills what I shoot at when I do hunt with it.  Not sure of the current prices, but I got a good deal on a mail order purchase when I bought mine.
