WTB Reliable, accurate, inexpensive Muzzleloader

[High Climber]

I have a multi elk tag this year and need to pick up a muzzleloader. I'm a bow hunter but in the case I don't connect on a bull during archery I want to be set up for success during Muzzy. I'm open to new or used, as long as it's in great condition.  I figured I would get some input/ ideas from you folks. Thanks

CVA Wolf is good, low cost entry model for inline muzzleloader.

CVA Optima Northwest is what I have. It's $292 from www.muzzle-loaders.com

CVA seems to be the thing I have a Elkhorn pro and I think I spent $150 on it.  NW legal.

Thankyou guys I will look into those. .50 cal is the best all around caliber for elk and possibly mule deer?

[bobcat]

Yes, no need to even consider any other caliber, .50 will do it all.

Perfect thanks

I bought the CVA wolf from muzzle-loader.com took a day to get in from Portland to Spanaway. Have zero complaints, I also bought a Williams peep sight and love the set up I've got.

I was reading about the wolf it sounds like a fairly small framed gun? I'm 6'3 do you think that would be too small? Thanks

[biggfish]

I'm 6'1" and I find it pretty comfortable. Length of pull is a little longer than most bolt guns. If your comfortable behind an off the shelf rifle you'd probably feel good with this.

Lots of good guns out there.

I prefer the Traditions Sidelocks. They are just as reliable and accurate as the inlines. Plus you don't have to deal with the plastic stocks and be made fun of.
