I got it 1/4 moa right of bullseye today. Took a break and adjusted it 1- 1/4 moa click to the left. Next 2 shots were touching center.. but 3 moa low? It’s been tracking perfectly so I am going to chalk that up as a poi shift probably due to temp change or maybe the way I was holding was different after the break. Idk but my god this has been a stressful experience, hahaha. I can’t wait to get a durable scope put on this thing and some seekins steel rings. I learned a lesson here 100%, and that is durability is the most important factor when selecting optics for heavier recoiling rifles. Consistency as well. It is dead deer moa but still, I like knowing I’m 110% confident when I’m walking to my stand with my gear. I need to get out there with only a few days left so I’ll shoot again tomorrow morning and hit up the stand or field edge in the afternoon.

Are you measuring with volume or weight at this point? Make sure your loading pressure is the same each time as well.

Weight. 70G so should be 100G volume but I’ve noticed it’s not quite lined up on the measuring tubes I got. Looks more like 95

I have a Nikon black X 1000 that I beat the crap out of that has never lost zero and still tracks perfectly. I believe it was tested with a 50 BMG. That is what I will put on my new Knight if I get a tag in a state that allows scopes. I also have a Leupold that I have had for over 20 years that has never failed me that I would use also. I do have a couple of Trijicon scopes on CF rifles that I like. The Huron model might be a good scope for a MZ. I don’t have a Maven rifle scope but I do have a spotter which has crystal clear optics.

Glad you got things going. I am new to muzzle loaders so have been following this thread and learned a few things.

Yeah the Huron as well as the credo HX, & accupoint are all on my list. Maven has 2 I’m interested in as well but not sure on durability which leads me back towards Trijicon. The Acogs they make can take a massive beating and still function perfectly and I love how the accupoint is kind of that in a scope form. They are just hard to find and pricey, especially on the 42mm objective models. Eyebox/eye relief is pretty important on a muzzleloader as well so idk how well the 2-10x38 Maven will be but man, it’s a steal at the $550 price tag… that Maven RS2 2-10 and the Trijicon Huron are both absolutely amazing deals imo. Both have Japanese glass under $600. Kinda like an Arken but made better and higher tier Japanese glass, lol. (I actually like my Arken EP5 but it sucks from 22-25X).
