I'm looking for any Recommendations on 1X scopes you may have used. This will be for a T/C Omega .50 muzzleloader. In WI we cannot use above a 1 power scope. If you have used one of these and have an opinion either way please let me know.

RE: 1X scope recommendations
I would use a red dot sight if they are legal .They are listed as 1X. I have used Millit red dots for years , I now have 6 .
If my 454 Ruger SRH or T/C Contenter 47/70 can't break 1 a muzzel loader will not.

Thanks for the reply Johnch, I agree the red dots are nice. I have one rifle with a red dot and the other with a Bushnell holosight. They are grat for close, but when you go back to 100 yards plus the red dot almost covers the entire deer and you can't get real precise aim.

RE: 1X scope recommendations
The Millit 30mm has a 3 moa red dot ,thats 3" at 100 yds and only 6" at 200 yds . Turn down the brightness and the dot looks smaller or try a different red dot

I have the Buckmasters Blackpowder 1X on my T/C. It has worked great. You can pick one up for about $160.00. Binoculars.com has them the cheapest that I have found.
