	Muzzleloader Regulations Review
		Muzzleloader use is scattered along the continuum of technological advancements from flintlocks to muzzleloaders with ballistic capabilities approaching those of centerfire rifles.
		Advertisement for at least one model of muzzleloader states that it is lethal at 200 yards when loaded with 150 grains of powder and a saboted 240-grain jacketed bullet, thus putting it on a ballistic plane with some centerfire rifles.
		Lermayer (1998) concluded, “the breakthrough in extended-range muzzleloading is coming from a return to pure lead, housed in sabots.”; Bullets also are being produced with synthetic bases that serve much the same purpose as sabots and allow for increased velocities in a similar manner.

	Beartooth Bullets > Tech Notes > Muzzleloader Fire Lapping
		So, it stands to reason that of we could firelap the muzzleloader barrel and eliminate the constrictions in the bore, that not only would accuracy be enhanced, but perhaps fouling from the fl powder residue deposited in the barrel might be reduced as well.
		Thus the lapping bullet, carrying its abrasive compound, is forced fully into the bottoms of the grooves of the rifling in the muzzleloader bore, and consequently both the tops of the lands and the bottoms of the grooves are unilaterally lapped at nearly the same rate.
		Since muzzleloading barrels are not the same harness as those of centerfire cartridge guns, the constrictions are removed quite readily, and in each case of these test guns lapped no more than twenty lap loads were required, even for the tightest of constricted barrels.
