Indeed it was. I zeroed it at 35 yards because I had limited daylight. I'll pinpoint it at 100 withinthe week, but this thing's accuracy right out of the box and with a new scope on it without a single shot with the iron sights amazed me. When I say zero, I mean it. My last shot nailed the bulls-eye like it was point-blank. Overall just the way it shoots was sweet. I have a hard time seeing how anyone can call these weapons primitive just because they are muzzleloaders.
