Anticipating next year, and having no clue on makes of the last several years, I was wondering what you use for an in-line deer woods gun. Probably scoped, as much as I hate it. Under $500, if possible. I've fired a few flintlocks and loved them but won't be hunting with anything other than an in-line.
Maybe more generally, what to look for and what to avoid in an in-line?
FWIW, fan of Hal Blood, rewatched an Ontario deer hunt with a scoped Encore Pro-Hunter, with 100 grains Triple 7 and 250 grains Shockwave bonded. Probably dated I imagine.
