T/C Triumph "Bone Collector" .50 cal
Broke down and bought my first muzzle loader. Haven't even got it yet. Won an auction here on GB. Any thoughts on my choice? I guess Michael Waddell had a hand in design. New Weather Shield sounds good and durable. Everyone I work with has an Encore, but this one seemed easier to clean and take care of for the novice muzzle loader guy?? Help please.

IMO it doesn't matter what bells and whistles you get on your muzzleloader, if you don't thoroughly clean it every time you shoot it's going to be a paperweight anyways. Looks like this is pretty easy to clean. maybe I am just lazy lol 0 -
Yeah, that's never a problem. I meticulously clean all of my guns after each use. I was just wondering if anyone knew anything about this model. If it's good for a beginner and easy to use, load, that kind of thing. Thanks. 0 -
Howdy Pard,
Don't know too much about the new fangled model you won there, but I will tell ya boiling water is the best way to cleen 'em in my opinion. Clean 'em often and shoot straight.0 -
Boiling water ... yipes. Since you have got yourself a modern Muzzle loader, I hope your are going to put some modern powder through it. I use Hodgdon 777 and I think it is the way to go and it does clean up pretty easily. I does take more effort than smokeless powder, but please do forget about Goex Black Powder and the boiling water! Have a ball ... shooting muzzle loaders is a lot of fun! 0
