jOe, I know that you are very experienced with muzzle loaders and I have certainly enjoyed reading and learning from your posts. For me cleanup's not the issue, it's reloading in the field. I use a 12 gauge 1973 Pedersoli occassionaly that at 5.5#'s is great to carry, but because of the PITA reloading I end up choosing my shots more carefully (no "Hail Mary shots"). For me, cleanup after the hunt is nothing.
