UPS tracking says it's out for delivery right now. I already have a hawken and a PA style flintlock, but this will be my first "modern" muzzleloader experience. We still have two weekends of muzzleloader season left, so I will try to fill a doe tag or two with it next weekend after I get to the range with it. My experience has been that new factory barrels don't require much zeroing though. I already bought some 209 primers and 295 grain Powerbelts, so I am ready to roll.

Schapm,

Please report back on the result and how you like the barrel, especially the accuracy.

If it works like advertised, it seems like an easy way to have a muzzle loader.

It sounds too good to be true doesn't it? I have read some reviews that were all pretty favorable save one. The one was a lefty who used the conversion on a right handed 500 and got some gas blown into his face from the ejection port. Also, I understand you are limited to like 90 or 100 grains of pyrodex, but that is about optimal for the bullets I use and the ranges I need to be able to shoot. As far as accuracy I will try my best, but I am SURE this thing will be more accurate than I am. There's a reason I favor shotguns...
