[QUOTE="crazymonkey, post: 2919480, member: 125421"] Had a buddy ask to borrow a muzzleloader or a pistol for a hunt. I asked if he had ever shot a muzzleloader - nope- . So we spent a few days at the range . Cva paramount pro 45 cal and a 4x14x50 nightforce shv for a scope . Went over how to load the gun and how the scope works ffp scope . He shot 4 inches to the left of my zero . So we made the scope adjustment and he was dialed in at 100 yds . Had him shoot my Contender in 223 and the striker in 22-250 out to 50 yds . After his hunt he says he missed and something must be off with the gun . He and his boy took turns trying to hit at 100 . I took the muzzleloader back to the range and put 1 shot out and it was exactly 4 inches to the right . The difference we moved from my zero to his . Loaded 1 more and went 4 left and bullseye . I did ask if he was good with the recoil it was shooting 112 gr of blackhorn and a 285 powerbelt elr. [/QUOTE]
