What scope would yall suggest?
How much u looking to spend? I would get like a Nikon Buckmaster 3-9x40 for it. (less than $200) That's what I have on my blackpowder. My buddy that hunts with me hunts strictly with his crack-barrel 45-70 now with "open sights" cause where I hunt it is so hilly, your longest shot is usually not more than 100 yards. Killed a nice buck with it last 2 years.
