A characteristic flintlock muzzleloader is a type of firearm that uses a flintlock mechanism to ignite the gunpowder, typically featuring a smoothbore or rifled barrel. It is loaded from the muzzle, meaning the projectile and powder are inserted from the front of the barrel. Flintlocks were primarily used from the 17th to the early 19th centuries and are known for their historical significance and craftsmanship. Their distinctive firing mechanism involves a piece of flint striking a steel frizzen to create sparks that ignite the charge.

Depends on the laws in that state, and the type of muzzle loader. Under Federal law they cannot use a gun with 209 primers (shotgun primers) as the primers are considered ammunition. In some- but NOT all states, they can hunt with a caplock or flintlock.
A 'muzzle loader' is any firearm (or cannon) which does not have a breech mechanism and which is 'charged' (loaded with powder and shot) from the muzzle end of the barrel.
Under US FEDERAL law, they can have a caplock or flintlock. They cannot have a muzzle loader that uses 209 shotshell primers (primers are considered modern ammunition) However, different states have different state laws. You will need to check in YOUR state. A parole officer would be a good place to begin checking, as would the state police.

not sure if this is what you are looking for but a musket is usually smooth bored meaning it has no rifling in the barrel where a muzzle loader can have rifling. A muzzle loader refers to any weapon that is loaded thru the muzzle in a simple definition and it can be either smooth bored like a musket or rifled like a Pennsylvania long rifle or like most modern muzzle loaders are today
