I started a new thread cause I didn't want to hijack Saline. I also decided to make this a thread instead of a PM incase some other fellas had some of the same questions.
In Saline's post you said a few things that raised a couple questions for me.
First:

What do you mean by this? My 700, out-of-the-box shooting cheap Core-Lokt ammo will hold a 1 inch or so group at 100 yards. Not bad, but the pattern does deteriorate down range. So what procedures or mods would you suggest? Also, how much $$$ we talking and do these procedures need to be done by a gunsmith?

Why is that? Why don't you like the .30-06? I been looking get a .270 WSM and selling my 06, but I am curious why you say you wouldn't own one. The .30-06 is one mean, flat-out killin round.
Third:
Last question I have has to do with the first. What do you know about muzzloaders, particularly the Thompson Center Omega in .50 cal? I just bought one and I have not yet fired it. I was reading about it though and a fellow said that it is pretty accurate out of the box, but can be made into a true blue tack driver with some adjustments. What adjustments, if any, would you recommend for a TC Omega or other muzzleloader rifle?
Thanks
