1x Muzzy Scopes

[huntingaddiction]

Alright guys, if you could put a 1x scope on your muzzleloader, which scope would you choose and why?

When I was required to use a 1x scope I ended up with a sightron 1x20. It was one of the only 1x scopes I could find that didn't make things look farther away than they were. It was also lightweight, and seemed to have decent eye relief. I don't know if sightron even makes a 1x scope now, but I see them used from time to time.

I did a search and all I found was 1-x variable scopes.

Do you need a scope? For low light, due to vision, etc.?

Some of the peep sights are decent for longer range shooting.

I hope it doesn’t pass, but if it does, I’ll probably go with a nice red dot. Optics Planet has the T/C fixed 1x in stock still but from the reviews I’ve read, it sounds like a cheap pile of ish.

What doesn't pass?

There’s a proposal in WA to allow fixed 1x power scopes on muzzleloaders. We should know by 4/9 whether it’s adopted or not.

I see. South Dakota has 1x on MZ rifle's. The options suck. I have a Crossfire, but it is far from ideal.

A 1x will provide boosted light transmission in low light conditions, but that benefit is really only gained at close range. I use a discontinued Vortex Crossfire 1x on mine when I use it in SD and it has performed well. I would 100% use it over any red dot, but I think you could get better range/accuracy out of a peep with a finer crosshair.

What?! No Peep Sight only?
