I am shooting a Traditions Pursuit XLT and love it. I bought it from Dicks sporting goods. It came with a scope and have not had a problem with it. I have it sighted in a 150 yards right now and she is shooting 3" groups. I have shooting 250 grain bullets with 2 pills.
Well I have several inlines but only use them in really foul weather now. My powder burner of choice is a .50 custom Pennsylvania/Kentucky percussion with a Syler lock. Shoots better then I can. I do shoot loose 777 55gr with a patched round ball. Its alot easier to clean using 777 versus Pyrodex or Goex blackpowder.
