Well this is my first post but I have been reading here for a few days now. Anyways I wanted to get into muzzleloading so I went to the local shop and picked up a Pursuit LT only a few days ago. I got this rifle because my father inlaw got one and it shoots great. Eventually I will check out an omega or encore but in my area $500 is the cost of the cheapest omega. So now I picked up a box of Hornady 45-250grn sst/ml bullets which is what my fatherinlaw shoots, well let me tell you I got the bullet half way down the barrel and that was it. IT took alot of grease and two of us to push the darn thing out. Why? is it a problem with my barrel? My father inlaw has no problems with them. I haven't been able to take it back to the shop because of the long weekend so I will have to wait until tuesday. Anyways if its a problem with the barrel and they have to replace it I was wondering if I should ask for a .45cal barrel? I was told that for long ranges .45cal is flatter and better. Is this true? Thanks eveybody and have a good day.
