Jason DeWitt's Iowa Buck: "Last year I harvested numerous does on our property with the Ultimate Muzzleloader, the longest shot being 215 yards (a perfect hit). This gave me confidence in the gun that if I can see a deer I can probably shoot and kill it. The 2008 Iowa shotgun season rolled around and a trophy buck made it was down a steep ridge on to my food plot 140 yards away. There was no question that with the Ultimate Muzzleloader I could harvest the buck with a single shot. The buck turned broadside and I placed the sights slightly behind the shoulder and fired the shot. The buck dropped in its tracks with a well-placed shot. It was a big, heavy 10 point that gross scored 166 inches. Thanks guys for building a truly remarkable firearm. "

Debbie Labadie: "While hunting with a friend of mine this past muzzleloading season I had the opportunity to shoot his BP Xpress Muzzleloader. I can truly say "I'm impressed". This was the first time I had ever hunted with a muzzleloader and let me tell you... I'm hooked. I am an avid outdoors girl and I work for Bass Pro Shops. Our store is filled with great hunting stories but I have to tell you that when I nailed my 11 point buck, well let's just say the "boys" back at the store were a little "green" and were even doubting the gun. Fear not, I have been quick to point them to your site. Anyway, my buck was trotting with two other bucks at 260 yards away. I shot him right through the heart and he went down about 60 yards later. What a rush! Thanks for making such a fine gun."

Keith's Michigan Buck: "This is a repeat story from last year. Iowa in 2007, Michigan in 2008. Made a perfect 100 yard shot with my BP Express and he piled up 25 yards away. Don't know how the fury finds the heart every time but it does. Two years using the BP 50 cal. and two record bucks. This year's big buck scored 152 gross, 22.75" outside. Both of my sons shot bucks in Iowa this year also with their Ultimate Firearms muzzleloaders. They each scored high 160's. Thank you from one happy customer!"

Brant's Buck: "I picked up one of your rifles used from a friend who sold me his old one to help pay for his new caron stealth. When I received the gun, it had been loaded for 6 months, last fired during the Michigan late muzzleloader season. I took the gun to the range and shot a 3-shot cloverleaf at 100 yards, the first shot being the 6-month old load. That was the summer of 08. Since then, I harvested 8 deer last year and 2 so far this year with all being one shot kills and not one of the deer shot taking so much as a step. All of the deer were hunted in the snow with temps 20 degees or less.

I am a gunsmith and have shot most muzzleloaders that have come out in the last 30 years or so and have not been impressed by the accuracy or consistency of any of the in-lines on the market. I have to admit that I was a non-believer when I heard of your rifles but my experiences with my rifle has proven it to be the most consistent, reliable and accurate muzzleloader I have ever shot. I believe this to be the best non-traditional muzzleloading rifle in existence. No bull, no hype, just a damn fine rife! Thank you!"

Jerry's Arizona Elk: "Randy, first of all, thanks for all your help! You have been a huge benefit to me. Secondly, I do not know what to say about this gun. It blows me away every time I pick it up. It is truly a remarkable firearm! Man oh man did I have a great year with it. . . two great mule deer bucks and a 365 inch Arizona bull elk. One of the mule deer was a 285 yard shot. He was quartering away at a slow trot. I heard the thwack before the smoke even cleared. It was awesome. I can hardly wait for next year. Thank you so much! Randy, you are like an "on call" gun surgeon!!!!"

Allan Rovig - Kansas Buck: Allan Rovig killed this 170" beauty in Kansas on his first afternoon of hunting in September, 2008. It was a 284 yard shot in a 20mph crosswind. Said Allan, "We have Extensively tested The Ultimate Firearms 50 caliber muzzleloader and I must say it is in a class by itself. Accuracy is easlily MOA or less and bullet drop, or lack thereof, is not comparable to any other muzzleloader on the market today. These guns are more accurate than all but the most custom centerfires! My personal gun will shoot 3" or less MOA at 350 yards. . .EVERYDAY. Thanks for a fine weapon."

Tim Marsh: "My father and I have shot every muzzleloader in the industry and we have just about every record in the book, but once we came on board the Ultimate Team it's then that we found out what all the talk was about. It is by far the most user friendly muzzleloader ever made, period. The accuracy is by far the the best of the best. When the bullet does not go through the same hole, I know it was my fault because it will punch holes through holes all day every day with light loads or heavy loads and clean up is under a minute. . . the most impressive muzzleloading rifles made. "

Frank McClung's Elk: "My 2007 elk harvest was a great success and an unforgettable hunt due in part to my first encounter with the 50 caliber ultimate firearm. My guide, Sonny Tapia, of Dream Mountain Outfitters, told me to leave my 50 caliber Thompson Center Encore in my gun case. He let me use his Ultimate Muzzleloader. I was skeptical at first until he took me to sight it in for my next day's hunt. I was amazed with the accuracy of the distance at 400 yards. With the confidence the gun gave me I was able to harvest the elk at 355 yards. The shot dropped him in his tracks. I wouldn't have felt confident taking the shot with my Encore. Thanks for developing such a powerful muzzleloader!"

Allan Wright: "The Ultimate Muzzleloader is the finest of the modern day muzzleloaders. Not only is the muzzleloader made with precision workmanship but the accuracy and beauty of the firearm is unmatched in the industry. Being a wildlife officer with two young boys, time is a valued commodity at my household, and the ease of cleaning The Ultimate Muzzleloader is one of the most important features of shooting the firearm. The team at Ultimate Firearms is the most personable and knowledgeable in the firearm industry. . . always willing to help get the most out of the firearm being used. Kudos to the you, Randy, and K.J. for putting the best of the best of muzzleloaders and rifles on the market. Keep up the good work. "

Gene's Coyotes: "Being an avid bowhunter and not harvesting an animal with a firearm in 7 years I lost the excitement for gun hunting. Last year I shot an Ultimate Firearms BPxpress. . .now I can't put it down. Consistently shooting coyotes at 300 yards with a muzzleloader is as fun as it gets. . .Thanks for making an incredibly accurate muzzleloader. "

Kelly Davis - New Mexico Elk: "My latest bull elk is the crowning achievement of my 30 years of elk hunting. It grosses over 380" Boone & Crockett. It was the first living thing I ever fired my Ultimate Firearm at. . .a 243 yd shot. . .off shooting sticks. I center punched him behind the shoulder with your 275 grain bullet. He took 2 jumps and piled "stone dead" into a cedar tree. I can't thank you and Ken enough for putting your rifle and bullets in my hands. I owe my success to you and am thoroughly convinced that no other muzzleloader can do what the Ultimate does. Confidence is 90% of any hunter's success and when packing the Ultimate in the future, I am confident there is a 100% chance that I will be notching my tag!! It isn't often that someone calls and thanks me, profusely, for my advise. However, I got a phone call from Allen Shearer, Belfair Washington, expressing his thanks for hooking him up with Ultimate Firearms and helping him get one of your muzzleloaders. He has already taken a couple of good animals with it. It is refreshing to have someone say thanks for steering them in the right direction, but it is the Ultimate Firearms team that deserves 100% of the credit. Keep up the good work."

Keith Dewitt: "Boy do I love my new BP Express. I took it to Iowa for the gun opener and shot this dandy 12 point at 210 yards on the top of the power line hill. "

Billy "Catfish" Parker's 2007 Antelope: "The laser rangefinder read 302 yards. I was so confident with my BPXpress that i didn't think twice about the shot. I got a good rest, put my crosshairs on the shoulder, squeezed the trigger, and it dropped him like he was struck by lighting. What a gun. . .very impressive indeed! I can only say WOW WHAT A MUZZLELOADER!"

Scott Reid: "I hunt in the shotgun zone of Sanilac County, MI. Over the years, I have seen deer of this quality, only to watch them walk away because they were out of range. That all changed when I purchased your BP Xpress muzzleloader. On November 16, 2005 at 2:30pm, this nice whitetail entered my property chasing does. I took the shot at 225yds and fell this great Michigan buck. . . 9pt / 20-inch spread, 204lbs field dressed. Thanks for making a superior product that gave me the ability to TAKE THE SHOT!!!"

Scott Reid

Phil Knox's 2005 Michigan Buck: "I shot a nice 9 pointer with my BP Express. He was about 150 yards away. One shot through the lungs and he went down in about 30 yards. I wouldn't have thought of taking the shot before getting this gun. "

Phil Knox

Dave Wasnock: "I am sending a total of 10 pictures of targets that I shot at 100 and 300 yards, each with 3 shot groups. So far, I have fired 260 rounds with my muzzle loader. My goal is to shoot approximately 1500 rounds by hunting season. I have tested SST 300 grains, Shockwaves 300 grains, Barnes SBT 285 grains, Deadcenters 300 grains and QT 300 grains. As you can see, the Barnes and the Shockwaves shot the best. Thanks for such a great, reliable weapon!"

Randy Johnson, UF Representative: "November 16, 2007: Second day of Michigan's firearm deer season. In Zone 3, where i live, you can only use a shotgun, muzzleloader, or handgun to hunt whitetails. The story I am about to tell you is true and comes from a lot of practice. My hunting buddy, Scott Derisly, and I also do a lot of long distance shooting together, so it worked out perfect to have him as my spotter. I am using an Ultimate Muzzleloader on a Remington 40x action and a Jewell trigger to trip the firing pin set @ 12 ozs. The optics are Leupold MARK 4 TAC 3.5 x 10 x 40, 30mm tube in a McMillan stock, so basically I have a muzzleloader on steroids. Down the throat of this hand held howitzer I have 4, 50/50 pyrodex pellets and a 275 grain fury. I already know all my bullet drop from, again, lots of practice, out to 700 yards and i am very confident. . . okay, cocky. So on with the hunt. . . We got about an hour of daylight left when i see a gray spot that wasn't there a minute ago. We put the spotting scope on it and Scotty says "Big deer all by itself. " We decide to take the shot. Scotty ranges the deer with a Leupold RX-3 and tells me shoot it like it's 600 yards, so i check the wind. I dope it at 8 to 10 mph. I give 36 inches of drift and bullet spin, let out my breath, concentrate. . . BANG!!! Deer kicks its back legs, runs 30 yards and dies. You would have thought we just won the Super Bowl! It would not have been half the fun if I was by myself. Having my shooting buddy there made it that much better. To sum it up in a nut shell, I could not have had that kind of fun with any other muzzleloader. it is truly in a class of its own."
