scope for black powder rifle??

prairiedoghunter
Bought a new Apex Magnum .50 cal and would like to scope it. I know there are muzzle loader scopes out there. Will a regular rifle scope work? If so what power do you recommend?

Thanks

    A regular rifle scope will be fine.
    I have a 3-9 power on my inline.

    check your state game regs. before you go hunting with it , here in WI you can only use a 1x or reddot without magnification

    I hunt in VA where it's legal to use muzzleloaders with scopes. I bought a TC sidehammer Renegade last week that someone had scoped with a Simmons 3-9x. I sighted it in on Sat morning and took a nice little buck that afternoon at 120 yards. Since I'm over 50 I can't see iron sights like I once could and the scope made it much easier to make the shot. Normal high power rifle scopes seem to work fine.

    Normal rifle scopes do indeed work fine, but do check your state regulations as some states do not allow hunting with scoped muzzleloaders.
