Whats cheaper to shoot

[TrapperJ]

I just wanna start off with yes 22lr is cheaper to shoot. Anyways here around muzzleloader season I wanna buy one and I found one for about 200 without a scope. I also though own a 7mm-08 which most know and I got thinking what one would be cheaper to shoot I pay about 50$ for 7mm and I know that a muzzleloader takes a few more things but for 50$ what all could I expect to get to shoot the muzzleloader with also which one is gonna be easier to maintain(I feel the 7mm is) thanks for any help on this topic

If you end up being like me and find that you hate cleaning a muzzleloader, the muzzleloader will be much cheaper to shoot because you will get it out right before season, shoot it to make sure it is still sighted in, clean it, shoot a shot or two at game, clean it, and then put it away until the next year.

BTW - if you are just wanting to shoot the 7mm-08, you can find ammo much cheaper than $50 a box.

I know I can order ammo for about 18 bucks but I prefer just something I can run to town grab and come back not wait a few days then shoot also cleaning the muzzleloader is something I do dread but I like muzzleloaders so I'm give it a go

Good plan when it works! Same one I have for muzzy season, went to the range Sunday and had to move to 25 yards to get on a poster board and am assuming a new scope is in order
