Leupold Freedom Muzzleloader Red Dot Sight, 1x 34mm, 1 MOA Illuminated Dot, Matte Black

Great option for many of the western muzzleloader hunts.

Great scope for a muzzleloader hunt that requires a fixed power scope

A soft cover that fits the dimensions of this optic would be the icing on the cake.

I bought this scope because Leupold has a reputation for making quality optics, but unfortunately, my experience has been extremely disappointing. After approximately 50 shots with this scope on my muzzleloader, I noticed that the red dot was missing. I discovered that the dot had actually come loose and fallen inside the glass of the scope. I sent it back to Leupold for repair or replacement. After several weeks—and many attempts to contact Leupold because of the lack of communication—they eventually returned the scope to me, supposedly repaired. I reattached the scope to my muzzleloader, and after fewer than 12 shots, it will no longer hold zero. I have an upcoming hunt, and because of the time it took to get the scope repaired and the difficulty I had getting any communication from Leupold, I now have to purchase another scope just to make sure I have a reliable optic for my hunt. I bought this scope specifically because I trusted the Leupold name. Unfortunately, this experience has completely changed my opinion. A scope that comes apart internally after 50 shots and then won’t hold zero after being repaired is simply not something I can trust in the field. Very disappointed. I expected much better from Leupold.
