Thanks all.

When I sold my muzzleloader the shop commented on what good care I'd obviously taken of it. It's hard for me to imagine someone NOT taking care of a gun. Cleaning up a muzzleloader is faster, though a little messier, than cleaning up a centerfire ... no waiting for copper solvent to do its job.

I hope the previous owner(s) of the gun I'm looking at felt the same way. It's a TC Seneca .45, legal for deer here (our minimum is .40 cal), and it looks like it should be a hoot for all kinds of stuff.

If it doesn't look good, then plan B is probably a Lyman GPH .50. That was plan A 'til I saw the little Seneca.


Anyone who thinks there's two sides to everything hasn't met a M�bius strip.

Here be dragons ...
