Yes, a rifle scope can work on a black powder muzzleloader, but there are a few considerations. It's important to choose a scope that can withstand the recoil and vibrations associated with black powder rifles, as they can differ from modern centerfire rifles.

Using a scope specifically designed for muzzleloaders can enhance performance and accuracy.
