Re: Muzzleloader recoil?
It depends on the ML you are using. My omega isn't bad with 150 gr 777 and 250 barnes

Re: Muzzleloader recoil?
I shoot a 120 grain load of BH 209 in my heavy Knight LRH MZ. I use the 300 grain Deep Curl bullet. The rifle has pretty stout recoil. About like a heavy 200 grain 30-06 load at about 2500 fps or so.
I also have shot a 120 grain load of T-7 with a 250 grain bullet. That recoil was noticably less than the BH load listed above. About like a 260 Remington. Tom.

Re: Muzzleloader recoil?
Dumb question of the day, but just for clarification, when you guys are talking about 110-120gr Blackhorn, you are referring to volumetric charges right, not weighed out on a scale?

Stout but manageable recoil. About the same as 3 pellets. I'm shooting a TC Pro Hunter, Shockwave 250 Gr, and 105 Gr (volumetric) of BH 209. This set up gives me the best accuracy at 100 to 150 yds.
