Hi guys. New guy here posting a question for a friend.
My friend lives in Minnesota and is a Muzzleloader FANATTIC. However he is getting older each year and is having problems with open sights. In Minnesota with an order from his Doctor he can get a specail permit to use a 1x Optical Sight (Scope) on his Muzzleloader.
First off no he does not want a Red Dot Electronic Sight and insists on a Riflescope. I looking at what is available he has basically found 3 Riflescopes that are a true 1x, a Nikon Buckmaster. a Thompson Center and a Sightron S1.
My friend is wanting to know of the 3 1x Scopes listed which one is the better of the 3?
He is a died in the wool Leupold fanattic but Leupold does not make a straight 1x Riflescope. He has had several bad experiences with Nikon over the years, all with Nikon Variable Riflescopes. Are the Nikon Buckmaster Riflescopes any more durable than the regular variable Nikon Riflescopes?
In short any and all information will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Larry
