Hey guys, just joined the forum. I've done a little reading and have decided to go with powder versus pellets. The CVA I bought is a kodiak magnum .45. It has a 28" barrel with 1:28 twist. I did not purchase with the starter kit as I would rather decide what products to use initially. I intend to use open sites and need a list of what to go buy as essentials. I am not overly concerned with price...i.e., I am not looking to buy the cheapest stuff out there.....I am looking more for quality and ease of use. I plan to use the gun primarily for a few extra days of hunting white tail deer in Louisiana. Here's what I think I need:
1. powder measurer....brand and or style?
2. bullets.....brand, style, and weight?
3. powder.....brand, etc.
4. cleaning kit.....purchase as a kit or individually?
Any help you can offer is greatly appreciated. I have not fired my muzzleloader yet, just taken it out of the box. I recently purchased my lifetime hunting license and plan to begin taking advantage of muzzleloader season. I am only vaguely familiar with muzzleloading so there may be other things I need not on my list. Thanks.
