I have a week in Nov/Dec to kill a cow elk with a muzzleloader. I have never really shot them much and just bought a new CVA Optima v2. Nice little gun. Seemed to do well and made me flinch with 444grain slugs.
I'm pretty sure Idaho is the same as Washington and Oregon for guns and ammo for traditional muzzleloading. I guess lead bullets or balls not copper jacked
So what are the most accurate bullets you have used for your muzzy?
This gun is 50cal and has a 1/28 twist
I bought the powerbelts and then found out they weren't legal. A guy at the range had all lead powerbelts (444 grain) and those are what seemed to shoot well. At 30 bucks for 15 I would like more info. This could get expensive until I make my own
Thanks in advance
Mike
