My shotgun will shoot a 5 shot 3" group at 200 yds . I'll take the extra 1 1/2" and the 7 minutes less time it takes to do it
Never Needed more than one shot at any range.
It also only cost me about $.50 per shot and I get about 155 shots per pound of powder. How many shots can you get for a $50 bill? $2-$3/shot for a modern shotgun sabot round doesn't give you many.
My gun also recoils like a 308.
anyway you look at it, the Savage muzzleloader is cheap to shoot, as accurate as a modern rifle, and deadly at any sane range.
