So... I just started hunting this past year. I started off with a .50 caliber CVA Accura V2 Long Range. And got my first doe during the muzzleloader season here in Massachusetts.
I decided I wanted to do some turkey hunting this spring. But Massachusetts law states you can't hunt with a muzzleloader rifle. It has to be smooth bore. So I bought a 12 gauge Ray Eye Signature Series Tominator from a fellow member on this site. It says it'll be delivered on Friday, but USPS is way behind on delivery, so we'll see.
I'm looking to mount a scope on my new Tominator. But all the pictures I've seen, have the scope mounted over the breech. And it looks like it would be a pain to remove the breech plug to clean it, unless you remove the scope first. Which I'd like to avoid. Can anyone help me out and give me some advice as to what scope mounts to use? As well as what a decent, inexpensive scope would be to use? I appreciate any and all suggestions.
