Would like to share my first experience with inline muzzleloading, for those who may be considering it. After hunting for many years with my .50 Hawken, I decided I needed a scope and better bullets, so I bought a Traditions Buckstalker with scope. Nice little rifle, light and handy,but when I tried to sight it, it grouped about 3 inches high and right, and scope adjustments would not change it. Sent the scope back to Traditions, and after almost a month they sent a new one. Meanwhile, Gander did loan me a scope for BP season. Meanwhile, I tried 4 different sabot loads, and only the Powerbelt .50 would actually load without beating the ramrod with a hammer. Even the no-name bullets that came with my rifle would not load. Costly experiment. Now I am trying to reach someone at Traditions, thinking my barrel may be bored wrong. Should have kept the Hawken.
