Double-tap. It’s the only way to be sure.

You cannot double-tap with a muzzleloader.

You can, but it takes longer. Just hope the shootee doesn't run off while you're reloading.

Sure can, just takes a bit longer. It, pull the pistol and finish it off. Or as Rogers Rangers rules dictate, “let them close enough, let ‘em have it with your rifle, then jump out and finish him off with your tomahawk”.

Point is to insure your quarry is dead. Assume even a deer is a threat until verified dead.
