I don't have any personal experience with them, as I prefer traditional muzzleloading rifles. However, a friend of mine who is a competitive target shooter has one and loves it. He says it is quite accurate and very well made. If I were going to get a modern BP rifle, the Remington would probably be my choice.

Yes there may be better choices but I am very happy with mine.  I shoot pellets and saboted bullets.  Only thing I changed was the sights...I put a Williams peep sight set up on it because at the time NY didn't allow scopes.  Not sure if they changed that yet.  With the peep sight I get a pretty decent group at a hundred yards within a paper plate.  Another plus is I shoot a 700 rifle in 308 so the "feel" of the muzzle loader is comfortable to me.

Well done, well done. Nice deer (mebe even a nicer gun next to it :wink: ). I meant by "better ones out there" I was referring to T/C's (Omega preferrably)...but those are for those with the Franklins  :roll:  :D
