I have been shotting a 10ML II for a little over a year now. I have shot MANY rounds with it off the bench for testing. I will say that I have been extremely happy with the performance and range of possibilities with this gun. I also got huge amounts of help from Doug's message board in my early time with this gun. I went through all kinds of testing with loads and bullets ranging from loads at near the energy of .458 Win Mag to smaller, lighter bullets with double sabots. These loads offer a broad range of possible applications. The bottom line with this gun is that for a muzzleloader, it is very accurate, very flat shooting and easy to clean. I ended up hunting with a somewhat moderate load with good energy and range. I fired it twice during the season and ended up with two dead deer. That is the bottom line for me.

The only bulged barrels I have heard of are from shooting ramrods left in the barrel and such.

I would have to say that those accounts are mostly rumors. The guys on the Savage Muzzleloading message board haven't had that problem and they have put 1000s down the tubes of their ML10s. They also shoot some pretty hot loads that are above the recommended loads.

I've noticed that alot of rumors get started on this particular MLer just because alot of folks refuse to believe that smokeless can be put into a MLer. This rifle is not much different than your 45+ caliber magnum centerfires.
