The answer to the question is more about preference and the distance you are shooting.I have a few muzzle loaders and a few slug guns.If you get a shotgun my suggestion would be a rifled barrel if you will be able to afford the sabots to practice with it.I shoot shotgun during shotgun season and muzzle loader during muzzle season.But my go to gun is my muzzle loader because it was only 50 bucks ammo is cheap and it is more accurate than any of my slug guns at 100 yards. And the recoil is not as bad as 3in sabots.I have never shot over 100 yards at a animal with it but it took down a 3in in dia tree at 200 yards with 80 grains of powder and a hand cast 250 grain bullet.I use the shotgun during season because if i can get 2 rounds into the deer and I don't have to look for it,then I will.
