I prefer a full buckhorn. Next choice would be a tang. A vernier is best for long range target shooting.

Amen to that. The man is the worst thing that ever happened to muzzle loading.

Are we still talking; Savage 10ML ??

If we are still on point for a Savage 50ML and the shot string has listed, then both sights you mentioned would not bring out the full potential of the Savage. Your best bet would be a low powered or variable optics or maintain your open sights. ...

The only rifles I put these kind of sights on are my slow twist SideLocks. ..


JMHO and;
Be Safe !!!
