Bought a muzzleloader several years ago that i have never shot, but I'm determined to hunt with it this year.
My eyesight has degraded significantly in the last couple of years, so I'm thinking it makes sense to throw on a scope rather than use the factory fiber optic sights..
Any recommendations from you guys that have experience on this topic would be greatly appreciated.
Gun is a CVA 50 cal that uses the shotgun primer if that is of any help. Propellent purchased with gun were 50 grain pellets and if memory serves, need to use 3 along with the sabot bullets, which are ???? 150 gr maybe?. Or perhaps 250 gr. I cant remember but they are the most common size for this type of set up.
Are the bullet drop compensating reticles worth consideration?
Would like keep this in the $200 range if possible.
Thanks and good luck on your hunging efforts.
