muzzle loader scopes - 01/23/20 02:49 PM
I am looking for a scope for a muzzle loader. I have an old 6x Burris scope that I used on rifles a few years back. However, I am not sure it has enough eye relief for a muzzle loader? Do any of you have experience with the old burris scopes? I am guessing that I need minimum 3 inches eye relief? I don't want to get whacked with my own scope. suggestions? thanks

Burris made a great scope with stadia lines for hold over but discontinued it. I forget the model number but have a couple and will look in a little bit. If you can find one of those I believe you’d like it

Redhedder,
If you are not picky and want a FREE muzzleloader scope, then PM me with your address. I think I still have a Konus in the closet that came as a package with my Optima that you can have. I put a Leupold on mine.

Leupold makes a very good ML scope

I run a 30 mm tube Meopta Meostar on my ML.
Love it.

Burris Droptine with Ballistic Plex reticle is the scope that I have.

whatever old/new scope that has a wide field of view and is clear will do. You'll probably never shoot over 200 anyway. If you do....then that's a different story.

I have a Nikon BDC and it works really well.

I have a SWFA SS fixed 6 power that I have been happy with on my Knight Mountaineer.
