I own one. It's a Remington... Looks a lot like their model 700 rifle.
It shoots fine and you are right for a deer muzzleloader you get a little more range but it isn't much more. I prefer to use the 50 caliber just because I use the same load whether it was deer or moose. The load is 150 grains of triple 7 and 250 grain SST bullets. I zeroed the gun for 150 yards. I killed a 6x6 elk in NM in 2010 with it. I have a few 50 calibers but I use the TC Omega the most.Last edited by enysse; 03-03-2013 at 08:43 PM.
