I have a Lyman Deer Stalker that's my primary hunter and a Lyman Great Plains just because I like it. Both are .54 flintlocks and I use patched roundballs in both. Every year that I go out in Pennsylvania's muzzleloader deer season after Christmas....I put meat on the table. You rarely see other hunters. Those that are out are hard core. Better chance of snow for seeing and tracking. Just an all around more pleasant and satisfying experience IMO.
