INTRODUCING THE MARKESBERY™
"OUTER LINE™"
ADVANCED MUZZLELOADING SYSTEM
No other muzzleloading system in history has ever been designed and built to be as "user friendly" as the
Advanced Muzzleloader System (AMS) from Markesbery™ Muzzle Loaders, Inc. Never before has there been
such a complete system that is as versatile with as many optional interchangeable barrels...as performance
minded to deliver the accuracy and knock down power demanded by today's muzzleloading hunter...as well
balanced for exceptional handling characteristics...as precision engineered for a lifetime of trouble free
service...as solidly constructed using the absolute finest materials and component parts available today...or
as easy to maintain for a more enjoyable black powder shooting experience.
Others in the muzzleloading industry make similar claims, but fail to measure up to the Markesbery™ Advanced
Muzzleloading System. Take a look at these outstanding features and you're sure to agree that nothing else
compares to a MarkesberyTM Muzzleloading Rifle when it comes to Quality...Craftsmanship...Accuracy!

BARRELS
· True interchangeable barrel pillar mount system that never changes "zero"...no matter how many times a barrel is removed from the receiver and replaced. Each barrel features its own sights and set of pre drilled and tapped holes for scope installation
· Rifles and optional barrels available in .36, .45, .50, & .54 caliber along with removable stainless steel breech plug.
· Premium quality, precision rifled Green Mountain Barrels are standard on all models, available in blued, matte, or stainless steel.
· All models feature the Markesbery™ "Outer-Line™" Magnum Ignition System, along with the reliable "Spit-Fire™" nipple at a 450 angle to the rear of the breech plug for positive, spontaneous ignition. (Note: This percussion ignition system is just as reliable as any true in-line ignition system, but is still legal where State Regulations prohibit the use of "in-line percussion" rifles)
· Fast 1 in 26 inches rate of rifling twist for superior accuracy with widest possible range of sabot and maximum performance heavy lead conical bullets.
· Rock solid adjustable Williams Rear Sight standard on rifle barrels with front Firesights.

This system replaces the nipple of any Markesbery™ KM Rifle and can be installed in less than two minutes. The optional 400 SRP (Small Rifle Primer) Magnum Ignition System puts upward of ten times the fire into the powder charge compared to standard No. 11 percussion caps. The hotter ignition is needed to insure full consumption of heavy 150 grain Pyrodex bullet loads, loaded with a 250 grain Beast Buster Bullet delivering velocity of over 2000 (FPS) feet per second. The system is virtually weatherproof and totally eliminates the chance of foul weather misfires.

RELIABILITY...ACCURACY...AND GAME TAKING PERFORMANCE ARE OUR GOALS
All of us at Markesbery™ Muzzleloaders, Inc., take our hunting seriously and like you, we don't want to leave anything to chance. Our rifles have been designed and built with optimum reliability, precise shot placement and devastating knockdown punch in mind. When you have just one shot between you and taking the game your after...we want it to be a sure shot.
Like our muzzleloaders, we continue to develop a line of accessories which will make loading, shooting, and maintaining these guns even easier than it is already. No one in the muzzleloading gun making business manufactures their own saboted bullets! Most manufacturers package the best reasonable quality bullet they can get at the lowest price. Not at Markesbery™ Muzzleloaders, Inc., we simply offer the best bullets...and every Markesbery™ Rifle is capable of shooting honest 1-1/2" groups at 100 yards once an optimum load has been developed for a particular rifle.
