Scope help.

[Com 45acp]

I just bought one of the Knight Disc Elite SS 50cal. I need a scope for it but money is tight and only have around $50 to spend on it right now. Any suggestions?
Some load data would be great also. Thanks.

Simmons 3X9X40 from Natchez Shooters Supply for $26. Can't hardly go wrong. Replace it with something better when the $$$ are available.

SAVE ONE MORE WEEK

Yes! Or LONGER!

Generally speaking...your avarage $150-$200 scope is SO much more reliable and has SO much better optics than your average $50.00 scope it's crazy. Your chances of getting a REALLY good $150-$200 scope is VERY GOOD while your chances of getting a good $50.00 scope are slim at best.

You realize you have one of the best muzzleloading rifles EVER? Try to save up and put a good scope on it if you can..heck..CHARGE IT!

Early muzzle loader comes in 2 weeks. I have no time to save up the money, need something now.
Thanks

Is it an option to forego the scope and just use the fiber optic open sights on the gun? Should do you well for out to 100 yards, and you could save time and effort of mounting a scope, getting it sighted in, etc... Then save for 10 months to get a better scope with much better optics that will last you a long time.

No sights on a Disc Elite...

I have seen used optics at various gun shops really sell cheaply. That might keep you in the price range you can now afford.

I found a nice used Nikon Prostaff 4x32 scope with Butle creek flip cap covers for $45. This should work I hope.

Hey Com, you might just find that's all the scope you'll ever need for hunting. The fixed power 4X scope is probably the most unappreciated and underutilized good hunting tool around.

com45, i have that same scope. actually, it was the scope that started on my disc elite. now it has moved to my mk-85. great scope, just be aware that it is parallax-set for 50 yds.

 

[Com 45acp]

is there anything I have to be concerned with 50 yard parallax. whats the best range to sight in.

You bought an Elite SS 50 for $100????? I will take one if they have any left. If so where are they? Thanks

I totally agree that you save your money up and get a better scope. However I had the same problem you are having last year and to get me threw the season I bought a Traditions Scope to get me threw. It worked great however it wasn't very bright but got the job done for the year. Good luck.
