LR Scope for Muzzle Loading

[StrutNut]

Hey,

Just thought I would see what everyone would recommend for a good Long Range muzzle loading scope. This would be for hunting situations mostly. I have a Winchester X150 45 cal that I plan on seeing what it can do. In MN we cant use optics during the Muzzle Loading season but can during the firearm season so I plan on bringing along as the spot I hunt is more open CRP ground and long range shots to 500 yards are there if I have the right equipment. I am not sure if my X150 is capable but I plan on finding out!

I use the Nikon omega 3-9x on my TC encore 50cal. It has the BDC reticle in it and I've had really good luck with it. Killed a doe last year with it at 275 yards. I was shooting a 250g sst bullet over 150g pyrodex pellets and the bullet didn't expand very well at that distance. I will not be taking any shots longer than that with my rifle/load. Just don't want to wound an animal.
