Help me choose

First person to make a post makes my decision. Tomorrow is our muzzleloader opening day. I can't choose, they're both equally accurate and I have equal confidence in my ability with either. Should I take the CVA Accura v2 .50 with 3x9x40 Luepold Ultimate Slam shooting Barnes 245 grn expander bt in a yellow crush rib over 76 grn bh209 with cci mag or should I take the CVA Kodiak Magnum .45 with Nikon Inline XR 3x9x40 shooting Barnes 175 grn expander in a light blue crush rib over 63 grns bh209 with the same primer. Someone help me decide. Laying in bed trying to make a decision. Gear is loaded in the truck with both rifles.

I have the Accura V2 in .50 and the Kodiak in .45. I really like the .45 cal on deer sized animals, but I don't like the extra weight on the hill I have to climb. If you're on flat land or don't care about the extra weight, take that .45.

Sounds like good advice. Then if you don’t see a shooter you can blame Mr.Tom that you had the wrong rifle in hand…

Mr. Tom for the win.
