The Tikka of muzzleloaders would be something that never fired and when it did, it didn't hit what you aimed at.
Lmao

Except our tikkas are tack drivers that make those custom gun owner leave the range. And oh yeah lets not forget the amount of animals we tikka owners are feasting away on. That includes the elk Im eating from my knight "tikka" rifle. Lol

I would like to get a muzzleloader I have had great experience with Tikka rifles is there a manufacture of muzzleloaders that equals Tikka for accuracy and reliability. First hand knowledge
welcomed.
Black powder firearms are about 1000 years old. I wouldn't stress about it.
I have a muzzleloader pistol I bought online as a kit. I put it together myself and have never had an issue with it. For context, I once built a moonshine still that literally exploded.
If you are trying to build a railgun out of a muzzleloader, you are missing the point.

Let me go this direction
What is a practical no *censored* muzzleloader that would be adequate for western Washington.

Thanks Mfowl
When will we know
Its in the proposals for this next 3 year season setting process that is taking place now. We'll know when they put the regs out, which will be before the special permit app period. I don't know a specific date.

Knight has a huge following with the Bighorn probably the most popular by a longshot. Probably a reason for it.

This will be decided at the meeting scheduled for March 15-17 in Wenatchee. Hopefully someone who attends the meeting can report here when the meeting is over. I often attend those meetings but they're usually in Olympia. So I won't be able to go to this one. Not sure why it's in Wenatchee this time.

I wouldn't let the 209 primer issue make the decision for me. RWS #11s are as good as anything out there. To me the only thing that would maybe give a 209 a slight advantage might be a bit easier to get on and off with fingers. But most muzzy breaches aren't great for getting your fingers into any way.

To me its not about 209's being any better its about the guns that will become available that only use 209 systems. We won't be limited to a few options anymore. My next gun will likely be a T/C Pro Hunter.
