Take a look at CVA's Accura. Like you I went in the store looking to get a Omega or Triumph. The salesman pointed me to the Accura, better trigger, barrel, less expensive, and it has a 2 week return guarantee,( if it is not the most accurate muzzleloader that you have ever shot return it). I just bought one a month ago and I am very happy with it. I bought last years model and saved over $150 dollars from what I could have bought the Thompson for. The only thing different is that the new model doesn't need a wrench to remove the breech plug. I will caution you on a mistake that I made, while adjusting the rear sight, the screws are set screws, don't turn them like they are click adjustable sights, loosen them and move them by hand.

Shop on line and you will save even more money and depending on where you live, it will be shipped right to your house.

Also plan on spending about $150 dollars on bullets, powder, caps and accessories.
