Default RE: NEF Muzzleloader groupings??!! Anyone ever had this problem???

2" high at 25 yards is too much.That alone will put your bullet about 6" high at 50 yards. Try dead on at 25. The other concern/question I have is in regards to the sight picture you are using. That scope may have a 6 m.o.a. dot (model? Bushnell makes a few different ones ). If you are covering the intended bull with that dot, you could introduce considerable error simply by being off-center of the dot. That difference could add another 3" rise in impact in the worst case.

I think your cure is two-fold - first: you are sighted in TOO high and second: you need to find some mechansim to assure centering the bullseye with that large dot.

Your group size is probably fine considering your sighting apparatus.
