New to muzzleloader.

I’m brand new to muzzleloader/ black powder. I have a bighorn in .52 cal. Can’t find bullets for it, honestly I don’t even know how to load it so I’m looking for insight on what I need to get. Needs to be Idaho legal.

This guy has the same gun and needed Idaho compliant. Looks like he had good luck with the Parker bullets.

Parker is probably going to be your best bet. They are an Idaho based company.
