Even during shotgun , it's all I've used since I bought it. My poor 20ga slug gun just sits in its case.

I do the same, although last year I started using a single shot 20 ga. on the wet days. My "870's" stay on the wall.

My slug gun is a 20 ga mossberg. 500 special hunter. Black synthetic stock parkerized barrel and tube black reciever. Black bolt. (It's such a black gun it shoulda been banned in safe act by looks) lmao. 24inch ported fully rifled barrel. Adjustable rifle sights see through scope mounts, and a 3x9x40 scope. I should use it a lot more than I do. But my muzzleloader is so much more rifle like

I have one of these also, brand NIB never fired & extra barrel with screw in chokes. Just the gun no scope.

Now I just use my .30-06.....lol before we had the use of rifles I would only use my Savage ML10II smokeless muzzle loader its the best muzzle loader in my opinion.

My pet load for the MLII fishkiller, 300g Barnes Original backed by a harvester bcr sabot, 58g N120 and fed 209A primer=puts em down hard! What is your ml recipe?

[fishkiller16]

300 grain Hornady SST with 48 grain IMR 4227 CCI 209 primer. Its topped with a Nikon 3-9x40 Prostaff and a Harris 9"-13" bipod. I have shot 4 deer over 200 yards with that load, and I have never had a bullet stay in a deer with that gun. I have shot 25 or so deer with that gun and not one ever took a step straight down.

Fishkiller, that's similar to loads I first tested yrs ago. Nice to hear you've gotten such good results with the gun. Yep, Bang, Flop.
