The Traditions A1171 Muzzleloader Scope Pack is a complete 3-9x40mm rifle scope system built for modern muzzleloaders and designed to get you glass and rings on your rifle without a parts run. Whether you're hunting black powder season or running a primitive-arms competition, this all-in-one package cuts through the guesswork of matching scope, rings, and bases—everything arrives ready to mount.
The 3-9x power range delivers versatility from brush hunting to mid-range shots, and the 40mm objective draws enough light for early-morning or late-afternoon hunting without the weight penalty of larger optics. The matte black finish resists glare and blends with most modern muzzleloader platforms. Medium height rings suit most standard muzzleloader receiver profiles, and the two-piece Weaver-style base integrates with conventional muzzleloader mounting surfaces.
Installation is straightforward—no hunting down compatible components or swapping rings between scopes. Traditions engineered this kit around the realities of muzzleloader ergonomics: you get the scope, the rings, and the base all spec'd to work together. Whether you're upgrading from iron sights or building your first scoped muzzleloader, this package eliminates the friction of ad-hoc assembly. Ideal for hunters who want a plug-and-play solution and shooters who value simplicity over excess magnification.

Frequently Asked Questions
What muzzleloaders is this scope compatible with?
The Traditions A1171 is designed for modern in-line muzzleloaders with Weaver-compatible receiver platforms. Medium height rings suit standard receiver profiles; confirm your rifle accepts Weaver-style bases before ordering.
What's included in this scope pack?
The package contains the 3-9x40mm scope, medium height rings, and a two-piece Weaver-style base—everything needed to mount the scope on a compatible muzzleloader. No additional rings or bases required.
Is this scope suitable for longer-range muzzleloader hunting?
The 3-9x magnification covers typical muzzleloader hunting distances effectively. The 9x maximum power handles mid-range precision work. For extended-range black powder shooting, you may want higher magnification, but this scope is well-suited to conventional muzzleloader seasons.
Do I need any tools to install this scope?
Basic gunsmithing tools—ring alignment tools and a torque wrench—are recommended for proper installation. Contact your local gunsmith or the manufacturer if you need specific guidance on mounting to your rifle.
