Help with Scope!

[SWIADEERHNTR]

Thanks for all the input guys! I have a traditions pursuit muzzleloader, looking to put a nikon omega scope on it.

The rings I was looking at are from DNZ: http://www.dnzproducts.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=66_35&products_id=185

They have some literature there saying anything below 40mm you can use the medium height setup (Ø1.94").

I'll have to check out all the suggestions posted here. Thanks!

Whatever you go with, I'll emphasize again, the use of blue Loc-Tite to secure ALL screws in place. The biggest problem with sighting issues tied to rings/bases is due to 1 or more screws coming loose, at least in my experience. Good luck!

To each his own to be sure, and I have never done this, but the rifle that I changed out a scope on last year (a weatherby 300 mag I got from a friend years ago) had had locktite put on the screws and they would NOT come loose. Had to take it to a gun smith to have the screws drilled out. Now the good thing was that the scope Never needed adjusting in the 10 years I had it that way...so up to you. But that is the first gun I ever had locktite on the threads, and I have never in 17 years had trouble with screws coming loose. But I use, and agree with the poster's use of, leupold mounts and rings, good quality stuff there.

I did an upgrade, took this old simmons and put on my new TC Impact, and got a new bushnell for the 300. As an earlier poster said, I had had eye relief problems in the past with the scope on the 300, with scars to prove it. And the first time I pulled the trigger on the ML on a deer...guess what? It kissed me between the eyes again. Not enough to do harm, but it got my attention Lotsa luck with your new ML.
