Love the Savage ML10II, in our family we have 5, I believe. I helped a neighbor build a ML10 from a 110 action that was a 223 Rem and a take off Ml10II barrel. Modules and Breach Plugs are still available from Savage.
We use both IMR SR 4759 and AC XMR5744 in our smokeless guns. I prefer 4759. I hunt with a mild 30 or 33 gr. of 4759, this is the equivalent to 85 or 105 gr V of BH209. I look for 1500 to 1750 FPS from the loads. I have personaly used over 2200 Win 209 primers in my Smokeless guns. I buy Harvester SB Sabots by the case from Graf and sons. I intent to have a another Stainless 700ML converted to Smokeless before this season rolls around, for my personal enjoyment :-) .
I personally don't own a ML10, in any form, but I have built 3 of my own smokeless guns currently hunting with a gun I built on a Remington #5 Rolling Block action. 26" 50 cal 1 X24 Stainless barrel, recessed the vent liner in the Breach plug, use Savage type vent liners that I drill myself.
I personally IMHO have no use for store bought Bullets in any of my Muzzleloaders, I cast everything from .226 47 gr Hornet Boolitz to 500 gr .514 WFN, I have 2 molds specifically for sabots, both are smooth sided slightly Bevel based Boolitz, first was the LBT 333 gr .452 LFN double cavity, next was the BRP products 5 cavity 300 grain FN. all My saboted Boolitz are cast of WWs and water dropped for hard cast minimum expansion.
Long live the Cast Boolit and Let the Meplat work.
