The primers to use are for smokeless powder. Triple 7's by Winchester seem to be the best I have used.

The Remington clean bore209 primers are the best I have used. Also the IMR white hots 2 pellets & 250 grain Barnes T-EZ FB bullets. I think you will be very happy with this load..

answer 2

Primers that I have had the best success with are the Winchester Triple 7 primers. CCI primers seem to be very corrosive and leave a corrosive ring in the seating area. As far as the bullet goes, I like a Hornady sabot. The power belts are easier to load but not very accurate.

I have tried a couple different brands and the Remington Clean Bores work well. I haven't had one missfire and you can take the caps out with your fingers. I've noticed the other brands winchester and 777, are tough to get out once you fire them off.

If you're looking at shooting out to 200 yrds you better understand that you will measure bullet drop in feet not inches. This gun is lethal out to 200 yrds but I certainly would not recommend it. It's pretty good to 150 then it really drops off sharp.

The Bone Collector does not come in SS. If you want the stainless steel look, go to the Pro Hunter. The most accurate muzzelloader I have ever shot. As far as loads go, I like the Hornady Sabots with Triple 7 pellets and Triple 7 primers. One thing I can say is CCI primers are way too corrosive for my liking.

No stainless barrels. Weather shield should be all you need though. Just keep the inside bore lightly coated with oil.

If you get the rifle without the scope, go for the Leupold bases and rings. Thompson Center does have a different base due to the break open action.

No it doesn't come with a scope. It has scope rails on it. The rings are specific to the scope so make sure they match.

There should be minimal movement in the barrel. If it moves more than a few thousandths of an inch, I would send it back to T/C. They got great costumer service, they will take care of you and your gun .

No, that sounds really weird to me. I have owned a couple of different TC rifles and have never seen anything like that. I would return the weapon before firing it. It sounds to me like there is some kind of manufacture's defect.

No. In order to get this feature you would need to move up to an Encore. The Bone Collector has a superior feel when shouldered so think about this. Trust me. The whole barrel switch thing is over rated. It's just easier to get another gun in the caliber you want. Not a single shot, break barrel action with very slow reload time.
