Whats your favorite muzzleloader you own?

I have a Lyman trade rifle 54 cal

my 45 Kibler SMR for a flinter, and a Tradition Crockett .32 for percussion.
.

My Lyman/Pedersoli flint GPR. This won't go over well, but I favor it over my Kibler Colonial.

Rob, I am surprised that you would pick a trade gun.

I like the set-up on your shooting bench. I’m particularly interested in the set of test tubes (?). Can you tell me where you got them??
Thanks.

Amazon, they're actually made for this exact purpose.
I make up powder charges before I go to the range. I never bring bulk powder with me. I can measure and compare each powder charge for consistency.

Sorry, I should have attached this.

Muzzle-Loaders™ Blackhorn 209 Charge Tube Case w/ (20) 150-Grain Charge Tubes - MZ1616P https://a.co/d/igIosXe

I don't know about a favorite but I have an emotional attachment to a .54 cal TC that my wife bought me, and her .36 cal Seneca that I got for her years ago . There are several that I like to shoot more than others. A favorite I cannot chose.

Toss up between Rev. period style flint long rifle, built by Ray Miller (RIP friend) that I shot for decades until health dictated I could no longer hold it up. And, the 'Little Fella' flinter built by Dave Persons that keeps me in the ml shooting game.

I always tell the firearm I am shooting,"You're my favorite."

Nice.

My .58 Remington 1863 contract rifle (zouave). Made by CVA. Plain, no frills, but effective.

Most fun is my 12 gauge flint fowler built by a deceased friend, too many others - both original and repo- to pick favorites. "Hackney" heavy-barrel target rifle is cool, but I've never shot it. Ithaca Hawken - most authentic of my "Hawkens" & shoots great. Then there's combo rifle/shotguns, doubles, and pistols. WTH? No "favorite", really.

My CVA zouave is one of my most accurate guns. From a bench at 50 yards it'll do a 10 shot group all touching.

Me too especially one he made
Larry Really, Rob that is one fine trade gun!!

TC Renegade .54 that I had rebored to .45 by Bobby Hoyt to shoot cast full bore bullets. Most accurate rifle I own. Shoots the lee 450-200-1r and 452-255-rf pure lead with hole in hole accuracy using my homemade mangalitsa pig fat and beeswax bullet lube at 60-40 mix.
