The Remington UML can safely use a larger powder charge (200gr of BH209), but it uses a modified Barnes muzzleloader bullet with a sabot. That Barnes bullet is great, but it has a pretty typical BC for a muzzleloader bullet (.210 in this case).
On the other hand, the CVA Paramount uses a large powder charge, but not quite as large as the Remington UML (150gr of BH209). However, the Paramount uses a much more aerodynamic PowerBelt ELR bullet.
Both muzzleloaders are very, very accurate and are effective out to 300 yards or so (maybe a little further) in the right hands. It's really a matter of personal preference as to which one is "better".

Tagging along here. Which Rem UML model is the best in 50 cal? I bought the bighorn a couple of years ago and not thrilled with it. This is the first I have heard of the UML. Anyone know the closest dealer to Chehalis?
I have both Rem UML's, they both are great rifles and shoot awesome! Not sure on dealer by Chehalis but you can't beat Carpsniperg2 price on one.

I’m guessing he will have a couple suggestions based on a few different priorities.
“Best” can mean different things for different people and applications.

If price isn't an issue and you don't care about the muzzleloader being northwest legal, then the CVA Paramount and the Remington UML are the two top dogs when it comes to off the shelf (not custom) muzzleloaders that shoot a black powder substitute. The two muzzleloaders have similar performance, but go about things in a different way.There is some very helpful information in the link you posted. :tup:

Williams fp peep if they make one for 700 uml. A Lyman globe sight up front is nice for shooting longer distances. Not sure what parts are required to make that work.:yeah:
REM UML. I have Lee Shaver inserts in my globe. We found a rail for the FP peep that could work but had to cut to length, round out the bottom and re-drill one hole to fit the receiver. NECG sells a rear peep that clamps directly to a readily available rem 700 weaver style rear scope base. The Williams WGRS rear peep will screw directly to the receiver and comes factory installed on the laminate version. Sometimes a different ramp is needed to match the height of the peep. We use Blackhorn209 but with less powder than normal FFG.

find a clean burning load and dont get caught up with massive powder charges . I shoot barnes ez and two pellets outta my knight ultralight light and its money out past 100 yards . if your shooting farther a williams upgrade is a must.I just ordered the Remington 700 from Matt. Apparently you can shoot 200 grains of powder all day long out of those babies. From what I hear they burn almost all the powder using magnum rifle primers. Can’t believe I steered away from knight. Hopefully they are as good as people say!
