TX Hunter, the original muzzle loading hunting seasons were set up to accomodate those who enjoy(ed) trying to relive history using the guns of days past. Those were traditional muzzle loaders, percussion and flintlock. The hunters were often also reenactors who chose a period on history to emulate.
However, for several years now, the term "muzzle loader" has been adulterated to include the plastic stocked, modern looking inlines bought in shrink wrap packages from Wal-Mart. They do not resemble anything traditional.
Those of us who wish to preserve history deeply resent these guns taking away our, formerly, quiet, low pressure hunting seasons.
They are modern rifles in different dress.
And, I'm still going to stay polite and not say what I really think.
