Hello everyone,

I just purchased my first muzzleloader... A TC Omega SS fluted laminate Thumbhole... Anyway I am new to this and have a couple of questions you guys could probably help me out with.

What are your opinions on scopes... On my Shotgun I have a Burris compact which I like, I am leaning towards the same, a Leupold 2-7, or a Weaver 4x... Any suggestions?

Also what are your setups... I am thinking of using pyrodex pellets, because they look easy (remember I am VERY new to this) and the shockwaves, although I hear they are a pain to force down, is this true? Should I go with the powerbelts? Is the accuracy that much different between the two at under 100 yards?

Thanks...
