[QUOTE="Weston, post: 1204071, member: 37187"] I have researched this subject to the point of nearly gouging my eyes out over the last couple weeks. Ultimately I am wanting a solid muzzleloader to increase my hunting opportunity. I have two Remington Genesis muzzleloaders I've used in the past from stands. And frankly I'm not impressed at all and ready to drop some coin to get something that will give me better confidence. I'm aware of ignition and powder system laws. I'm fairly confident that I want a BP gun and not a smokeless gun, but I think I am willing to utilize a 209 or Mag primer, knowing this will disqualify me from CO hunts. I'm looking to drop around 1000 on a gun, and want the gun to be capable to shoot minute of deer vitals at 300. Obviously I know there will be load development involved. I'm really trying to talk myself into the Remington UML, but I'm having a hard time with the lack of reviews at long ranges and the reports of shoddy barrels (although the majority of the reviews I've found are from 2014 right at initial release....perhaps the bbls are fixed?) The other ones I'm considering are a knight mountaineer (although I would prefer a synthetic stock and not sure I want the ultra lite western) I guess my question is two part, are there any happy Remington UML owners, or dissatisfied owners, are there other guns I should also be researching? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
