I just want to talk what worked for me, and what everyone is using. I started with a 4x32 on my Barnett I didn't like the crossbow graph. I went to a 3 dot Red/Green scope didn't like it. Now I have a Truglow speed adjustable 4 dot Red/Green Reflex and it is sweet, its so accurate its getting boring LOL. Its adjust from 300-400 fps, 4 dots 20,30,40,50 yards, Hope this helps others on the sight quest.

On my katana I have a leupold vx2 2-7 Rimfire mounted on a hha. I will most likely never touch the hha in the woods because it shoots extremely flat out to 40yds. I have yet to find a crossbow scope that isn't to busy inside for me. I like crosshairs and that's it.

Ah, the K.I.S.S. theory. Good on you.

I started with the cheap sight that came with my vengence and quickly ditched it even before the first season opened.  The preset cross bars did not match up with the bolts flight.

I added a zeiss xb75 and was able to dial in the lines.  It works by changing the power setting, mine is now between 3-4x.   Now the 30, 40 and 50 lines are dead on.  Better than I will be able to shoot in the field.

I agree with the above, most cross-bow and especially designated muzzleloader scopes have way to many lines and are too busy/complicated.

Do we really need all those lines?  Max range on xbow about 45 yds and we are shooting at a 12", better 6", hit zone.  Similar with muzzleloader, the drop is just not enough to require confusing us will all those lines.

anyone who grew up with a simple duplex can use Tennessee elevation and compensate at the distances we, or better I, shoot.  I'd like a good scope for muzzleloading, but will probably use a plain ole M8 4x, good enough for all my needs.
