Default Good scope for TC Omega

Looking for a good scope to sit atop my Omega. Would like if I could find one to match the camo of the stock (think it's Realtree D).

Thanks
Bill

2nd on the Pro Staff. I have had a matte 3-9x40 on my Omega for three seasons now and I love it. I have a 2-7x32 Nikon shotgun scope under the x mas tree as I type. The Pro Staffs are great for the money.

Nikon or Leupold should do the trick nicely.

My favorite scope I own or have used for that matter has been a Burris Full Field II. Now I don't have one on a muzzle loader but it's great on my rifle. I've used Leupolds, Simmons, and others and prefer the Burris. Now I'm sure a $500-1000 scope could be better but for the price I think it's great.

At first I had a Leupold VXI 2-7 on mine but switched to a Leupold VXII 1-4 this season.

I have 2 Omegas. I have a Browning 2x7x32 on one. I have been told this is a Bushnell scope somewhere in the Elite 3200-4200 range, minus the raingaurd. I think that I would really like the rain gaurd. This is a tough little scope and has stood up well for the past 3 seasons. Never gone out of wack, and has been hunted hard.
Just mounted a Nikon 4x40 Buckmaster on the other Omega. Haven't even shot that one yet. It is a little heavy, and long, but the glass looks pretty good. Bought that one for $99.00 from Natchez.
The Bushnell, (Browning), has been very durable and consistent.
As I stated, I have not put the Buckmaster through the test yet.
One thing that I have realized, I believe I do prefer the 40 ocular over the 32.
