Default RE: Best Scope?

I was shooting my Black Diamond today with the new Bushnell Dusk to Dawn 1.5 X 4.5 32mm shotgun/muzzleloader scope. I am real pleased with it so far. It is real clear and gathers light well. I was shooting 120 grains of Pyrodex RS and a 370 grain T/C Maxi Ball to see if the recoil would be real bad and also how well the Maxi Balls shot. Well the Maxi Balls shot FANTASTIC. Much better then I ever thought they would. The gun kicked pretty good with that charge because the scope nudged the bill of my hat, but at least it did not catch me. I only had one time the scope I think touched me, but just barely. I was shooting T/C Shockwaves with 120 grains of Pyrodex and was really not holding the rifle, letting the bench do the work, and the gun jumped pretty good. It was my own fault. there is I think 3.5 inches of eye relief with the scope...
