Looking for any actual user info on the new Remington 700 Ultimate Muzzleloader. If you have one and used it this fall please share your thoughts.

Too bad you can't shoot loose powder out of it, can't use it in a few states (CO included) because of that. This is based on what Rem says, I'm sure this will be tested but I would have a hard time pulling the trigger on this when the mfg only recommends pellets.
Yea I'm thinking the pellet only thing is a big problem. Especially those of us here in Colo. Interesting rifle though.
Where are the pictures and story..I use 45 acp cases modified for 209 primers.
Thought about doing the gun, then drew a nm ibex tag so got it built quick. I felt good at 500 if needed. Shot the ibex at 380. I really just did a barrel and breech plug then put it on a switch barrel I already had.
I have a full form swing lock die. I would probably just go smooth die as the bullets that fur barrel without sizing shoot just as good. These are sabotless,
I have 2 of the Remington Ultimate Muzzloaders I have the Bell and Carson stock and the laminated wood stock. both shoot extremely accurate I use loose powder blackhorn 209 160 grains by volume! 300 grain parker ballistic extreme bullets and I shoit sub moa groups at 200 yards!!! I have shot both of them out to 500 yards and I don't have any problems it holds a perfect 4 inch groups at 500!!!! Took a while to get the load it liked. I paid 750 dollars for each remington 700 ultimate. I did not get great groups with 4 t7's the gun shoots so much better with black horn 209. I will be shooting them this spring with more loads to see what bullet will come close to the Parker bullets. I also am using the night force g7 on the bell and Carson model and I use the Johnston ultimate muzzloader scope on the other one witch is a leupold vx6 custom turret and they shoot alost identically!!!!
