Curious if anyone has had the same issue.. I have a 50 cal Bone collector and can't get it to zero at 100 yards. It shoots about 4-5" low, the windage is good. I have tried loose powder and pellets from 100-150 grains. I have shot multiple brands of bullets. I clean it after shooting it. It groups well just low. I have had other people shoot it with the same result. I have contacted the manufacture and that was a dead end. I also bought a new rear sight that was a little higher than the stock sight, it gained some but still low. Ideas??

Just an idea but a peep sight and globe helped me immensely on my muzzleloader, it’s the same muzzleloader you have. I couldn’t get proper sight alignment with the open sights because I think they built the stock for shooting with a scope, I couldn’t get my eye low enough to shoot it. With the Williams peep and front globe I had to add either 9 or 11 beer can shims under the globe to get a 100 yard zero

Higher rear or lower front sight would be the answer. What type of rear sight do you have on it?

I understand the concept of how to move sights to change bullet trajectory but I don't have any more room to adjust up on the rear sight and the front sight is fixed. I am more asking if people have had the same problem or what there fix was. I thought the stock sights would be able to shoot out to 100 yards. I bought the Williams sight because it had slightly more adjustment which helped a little but not enough.

I’ve never experienced what you’re describing. You might call Williams and describe the issue. There was a guy on another thread/forum that had the same issue. IIRC, Williams sent him a higher base for the rear.

Thank you much for the info! TC customer service isn't much help since they got bought out
