I guess I'll throw in my amateur opinion. I do believe California does not permit scopes during the muzzleloader seasons. So your stuck with peeps or iron sights. That'll limit your effective range. What's the point in purchasing an inline "sabot" gun like an Omega? I don't see the value of lighter bullets in close range (100yd in) situations. Why not get something that'll accurately chuck bigger chunks of lead (or powerbelts) like a sidelock or a White inline? White as a company no longer exists. However, I've never heard anyone call a White rifle a POC. My sidelock conical shooter set me back an entire $175 for the gun. Just food for thought.
My Omega will throw 340 gr PR Dead Centers inside 2 inches @ 100 ydsall day long with 2 T7 50 gr pellets and a 209 Win primer. That is with a scope. Put a good peep sight on it and I'm sure you could keep them inside 5 inches at 100 if your eyes are good enough. I'm sure there other good shooters out there as well.....
