Should I Scope My Encore ?

[LampLighter]

Since I lost out on the lotto hunt, I need to make the 2 MZL days count. I currently shoot the open sights on the Encore muzzleloader. Should I scope it? I have plenty of time. If so, with what ?

I would say yes, and with a 2.5-10x by 40mm scope.
But that's really too pat an answer.
It depends a bit on you and you load.

Will you expect shoot in low light?
Will you shoot in a brushy environment and need to thread through brush?
Are your eyes poor?
Do you shoot fast light bullets for long range?

If you have two or more yes answers a scope would do ya good.
