Hello,
I drew a muzzle loader mule deer tag in NM this year. I was my 3rd choice tag and I did not expect to draw it at all. Now that I have I want to give my best effort on this hunt.
I need to find a muzzleloader quickly and get to work practicing. After a lot of research, I have settled on the CVA Accura LRX 50. Caliber. This seems like a good modern option that is in my price range. I have not ordered it yet, but think I will in the next few days unless anyone has any convincing reasons why I should go another route.
I am looking for any tips or recommendations for how to figure out my loads and get used to shooting muzzleloaders: bullet type, powder type, powder weigh/grain, primer type. It is hard to find much information about this specific gun and recommended load specifications.
I welcome anything and everything a total beginner might need to know. Thank you so much in advance!
