    What was your first Muzzleloader?

    My 1st gun was a Navy Arms ".58 cal. Buffalo Hunter" nice looking gun, but never could get any accuracy out of it! I ended up taking it back and exchanged it for a H & A ".45 cal. Heritage Model" great gun! Then WE FOUND OUT ABOUT THE "LOG CABIN SHOP""(we only live about 45 miles from it)...
