Depending on how much u wanna spend on a muzzle loader u can check them out on cabelas.com.. I bought a CVA Optima Pro at Cabelas at got the 3-9x32 muzzle loader scope kit put on all for $300. I shot my first ever muzzle loader deer with it this october.It was a 2 yr old doe. I find my gun is most accurate with 100 grains of Triple Seven pellets and a Hornady Lock and Load sabot in 245 grains. I have the gun printing 1 1/2 inch groups at 125 yrds. With this set up I'm hitting 3 inches low at 200 yrds. It is entirely up to you on what brand u would like Remington's Genisis is another good gun for your money along with Winchester's Apex. You don't have to spend the $750 for a Thompson Center muzzle loader. As for the ammunition whichever ammo shoots best in your gun is the one I'd use.I hope this helps a little bit sorry if I typed a bit of a story just wanted to give my experience.

I have long been a Thompson Center fan and customer. They put a lot of attention to detail in their products, build great guns, and are friendly and helpful with any problems.
They stand behind their guns, even the kit guns.
Every year they send me info to use for teaching the muzzle loader rifle merit badge and hunter's safety.

CVA is a good choice for dependable and reasonably priced muzzleloaders. They also have several options that let you purchase centerfire barrels for the same frame. Their warranty program is excellent. Check out their web site at http://www.cva.com/ for a comparison of the new CVA Apex to the T/C Encore.
