[QUOTE="devildoc, post: 171476, member: 5615"] I'm sure it's possible to set up a muzzleloader to be a 2 MOA rifle out to 3-400 yards, however, it would take a whole lot of work and keeping a traditional look to the rifle would complicate the matter by a lot. First off, I'd definately want it to be 209 primed, caps just wouldn't give consistant enough ignition. In-line would be better for the same reasons. You'd probably want to use smokeless powder and coupled with a fast enough twist to stabilize the bullet, recoil would probably be stout. So, in short I think you're probably skating uphill for what you want to do, you might want to re-evalute what's important here, do you want a traditional muzzleloader, or an extremely accurate muzzleloader.
