Re: Big bores sights, open, scopes or other?

I see what you are saying and it may work for you. In my experience when close I very rarely have the time to do that. At longer distances a variable scope, to me, is a good choice for the reasons you have outlined.
You don't need any time, the scope is set to a minimum magnification and if you have to shoot effectively very quickly, then you can shoot with a magnification 1 to 1,5, still better than having the open sights blurred or incorrectly used.
It is certainly also a question of practice to shoot quickly over open sights. In the past I also often shoot over open sights, especially during the driven hunts on wild boars and roe deers. Unfortunately, now I am older and my eyesight is getting worse.
