Seems that I continue to read that most inline muzzleloaders are good to 100 yards maybe 125 but that is pushing it. Seems that the makers of most make suggestions otherwise but that is perfect conditions and seems we never have that while out hunting. The wind drift, being the projectile is more subject to drifting off that makes them subsceptable to not going the distance of the "200" yard that many manufacturers market theirs as capable of.
What are most here max distance and what is the farther distance you have taken a deer at with your preferred Muzzleloader and what sabot or projectile was used as well as powder used and how much was used...
I am looking at 80 yards as the best distance but we all know deer never offer us the shot we are looking for the fartherest is 120 yards. But that is if everything goes right but the wind never seems to work...
Just wondering since I seem to get the muzzleloading bug right after Rifle season ends though I have taken my Muzzleloader out for rifle have yet to see a deer to break it in...
Thanks for any info...
