Title: TC Muzzleloaders
Post by: Rrich2278 on August 23, 2015, 04:29:37 PM: Need a ML for upcoming Elk season. I was wondering if anyone knew if TC makes a breech plug (Northwest edition) for their pro hunter FX or Bone Collector. I have both and would rather pay to change what I have versus getting another ML. I've done a bit of searching online and haven't came up with anything, just curious.

Also, anyone have good reviews on the CVA Optima?

Unfortunately, TC does not make any of their guns northwest legal, and does not offer a conversion kit either. Both of the guns you have are great performers, and it would be great if they were able to be converted.

As far as the Optima is concerned, it is really hard to beat for the price point. I think it would be a very good option for you.

Appreciate the feedback..

Here is one you might take a look at... It comes with several improvements over the original Vision and has Green Mountain barrel. Set up for Western hunting.
