TMK equivalent for muzzle loader

[Skinnyguts]

I’ve been using Bloodline bullets. They have been very effective terminally for short to medium/long range. 200 yards. My issue is they are not designed for longer range/ slower velocity. Being allowed to use scopes in WA now, I’ve been trying to find an equivalent to the TMK for muzzleloader. Any suggestions for a good killing bullet with higher bc?

Of what I’ve seen, the Hornady ELD-X.

Arrowhead XLD. They have a massive meplat under the tip and a very thin jacket. The ones I've shot have upset very quickly and left massive wound channels.

Parker makes a fantastic cup/core bullet. I really like the 300 and 327 gr Black Max.

Parker Black Max

Designed for maximum expansion and energy transfer, this bullet is perfect for medium to large thin-skinned game such as deer, elk & sheep. For use in sabot or bullet to bore applications. *Sabots Not Included

I’d add Pittman, fury bullets, and Parker as well

+1 for Pittman. The most insane wound channels I’ve ever seen. From 80yds out to 600 yds (back when they allowed scopes here in Utah) on deer and elk.

This. These bullets behave much like a TMK. I’ve shot a big bull and multiple mule deer have been killed with this bullet between my sons and me. All very quick deaths and very destructive wound channels.

With a single data point these worked excellent for me. Bang flop. 45 cal.

Same here. A big bull - dead in 10 steps and a couple big mule deer bucks - very explosive - quick kills. No exits.

Whats the best bullet/sabot combo to shoot out of a CVA Accura?
What muzzle brake do you guys like that works with sabots?

I’m using the Muzzle-loaders.com .45 brake on my MRX. Tames the recoil and it’s still easy to load using the Cedar Mountain speed loader. So far the ELD-X bullets are shooting best for me but a bit light on the resistance when loading.

Speaking of the Cedar Mountain speed loaders - they make loading and quick follow-up shots so much faster and easier. Well worth the money to have one in your kit
