Spirit Overtop Inline

Here's a pretty new in-line I found at www.taylorsfirearms.com. What do you forum members think of it?

Looks a lot like the Lyman Mustang.

That's the one.The same company makes it in a center fire rifle distributed through the same  web page.I have never seen one before in a muzzle loader,but I believe it is made by Falco Arms in Italy. www.falcoarms.com. I thought it was very pretty.

Looks like its a good quality product. I wish I had $800 but I don't.

It is a nice looking muzzleloader but a lot of money for an unknown rifle. I coubt anyone will buy it based on the number of known rifles that are available for about half the price.  For that much you can buy the T/C Prohunter.

If your main concern is getting a quality inline with a nice wooden stock, you could buy a Savage with the plastic stock, I think they are about $450.
Then you could buy a nice walnut stock from these guys for as little as $70 and you are all set.

Or a regular T/c with blued barrel and walnut stocks.

It looks like it might be a nice rifle but I wonder about their specs. They list it as having a 28" barrel and a 33" overall length. I don't know about you but to me the stock looks a bit longer than 5".
