Default RE: red dot sight on muzzleloader??

Honestly, I think a quality plex reticle type scope of some flavor would be better for deer or other large game hunting. Plus at longer ranges beyond 75 yards, you could end up regretting having went with a holographic sight.

Holographic sights are typically best in short range, close quarters, quick target aquision shooting such as bird, foul, law enforcement or military.

Normally you are hunting from a concealment position or quiet stalkingthus quick surprise targeting is not required. And shooting at a deer on the run is an optimistic shot at best.

Not sayingaholographic sightwould not work on an ML, it wouldbut I would rather have a quality scope on mine every day of the week and twice on Sunday.

Best,
