Default Muzzle loader choice

What could be the best muzzle loader model brand around? For big game
One choice considering the cost?
One choice with no concern of the cost?
I will make my own research, but this post might speed up my research
Thx
Frank

Savage model 10ML... shot smokeless powder out of it and you have a 300 yard front stuffer...

I don’t know if it’s the best but it’s the nicest muzzleloader I have shot and owned. I really like my TC pro hunter but I have only shot a handful of muzzleloaders so not a highly experienced option

I have 2 tc’s and I love them
The Hankins shoots a 45 cal 327gr bullet faster than a 378wby

Look for used savage or a custom 45 if you want to spend lots. Other than that lots if good muzzleloaders out there now a days. I like the new cva. I had a Savage now a custom 45 cal.
