i'm a brand new to muzzleloading this year (got a doe on saturday!)... i own a 50 cal. omega...the main reason i bought it is that i got a real good deal from a guy that bought it new and never shot it!....i didn't do a whole lot of looking, but a buddy had one and he loved it.....
anyway... my brother has seen mine and is getting interested in muzzleloading, too...he is thinking about looking for a rifle for him and his 2 boys (14 yrs & 16 yrs) to try it out..he's shot mine and likes it alright.....they are all lefties, so a bolt action doesn't work too well for them...i've reccomended the omega to him, but i really don't know what else to reccomend... what are some "entry level" rifles that he can consider? ....he is on a budget....what do you think about buying a used gun?..i also told him how much this site has helped me ...(and probably with a little research i could come up with some guns for him to think about, but i'd thought i'd just ask instead...)..
thanks for all the help .
