What do you use for a scope on your muzzleloader?

[Mr.Rigpig]

I just purchased a muzzleloader and will be purchasing a scope for it soon. Just wondering what everyone is using and if your happy with it.

Currently leaning toward a Leupold VX-II or III (or earlier generation) in
2-8 or 3-9 or similar magnification.

I had a cheapo 1-4 on mine. It didn't have enough magnification. I think you're on the right track with 3-9ish.

 

[Mr.Rigpig]

Guess I should mention 50 cal Encore Prohunter.

I have a Nikon inline xr on mine. Eye relief is awesome. Has a 300 bdc reticle but honestly, I think I'd rather a duplex.

Leupold m8 4X

 

[gasguzzler]

Vx2 2-7x33 on my tc pro hunter. Does the job

 

[TheTooner]

Weaver K2.5x which is plenty for the effective range of mine (Traditions Tracker 209.) I'm thinking of replacing it with an old Bushnell Banner LiteSite 4x40 just because I haven't tried this scope yet and don't have anything else to put it on.

I have a Burris Fullfield 3-9 on mine and it works great.
The inline smoke poles will reach out there a bit.
I took a nice little white-tail buck at 175yards with mine.

Just purchased a Bushnell trophy xlt 3x9 with the doa 250 muzzle loader reticle. I am no expert but it will do what I want. Seems like a decent scope for the money.

 

[Mr.Rigpig]

Just purchased a 3-9x40 vari-x II off the EE for the muzzleloader barrel.

Had a 2-7X33 redfield revenge on mine with AR reticle was a prefect set-up.

leupold ultimateslam 3-9x40 on my prohunter and a bushnell trophy xlt 3-9x40 on my back up T/C impact.
