OK, i'm finally done trying to continue to hunt. I have even more medical problems that will prevent it. I'm a foolish stubborn old goat who can't accept the truth but I have to. My hunting days are behind me. I'll fly fish a pond that's near me and use it to stay outdoors. Fish don't taste as good as elk meat but better than nothing.
So, with that baloney out of the way. I just bought an Optima from Muzzle-Loaders a few weeks ago after the Hawken weight turned out to be too much for my back. I find more ways to lose money. This gun is a ML scope package with a gun case. I took only 4 shots when I realized I can't handle any sort of recoil anymore. My Osteoporosis won't allow it.
This is what I bought.

As you can imagine the gun is still like brand new with no marks anywhere. When loading it feels like a nice even diameter bore all the way down. Surprisingly the scope is much nicer than I thought it would be. Nice clear glass and good eye relief. It has a simple duplex reticle. It's a nice hunting gun.
I'll include about 55 Powerbelt AeroLite 250gr bullets. You may not like them but I think they're fine for deer. If nothing else just practice with them or sell them. Some members here were kind enough to give me 200 Winchecter shotgun primers and about 70 Winchecter Muzzy primers. I'll include those too. I'll include the tools CVA sells to clean the breech plug. Anything else I have i'll include too.
I can't sell powder here but if someone is in Colorado and wants to pick up I have 3 lbs of Pyrodex Select and 5lbs of Goex 2F i'll sell cheap.
How about $350 and i'll split shipping with buyer.
Sorry, but no camera for pictures but it's brand brand new. If not happy i'll pay for shipping back to me and reimburse what you paid to ship to you.
