SHOULD ELE "STOPPING RIFLES" BE SCOPED??
10/04/06 08:35 PM

Many hunting friends have low power scopes on their Big Bores(.45+calibers) and specifically so if used for Ele hunting.If hunting ELE close range and charged is that scope a liability? Multiple scope issues can arise- off zero, reticle failure,visual blurring, magnum eyebrow, restricted field of view.etc---.The benefits are better low light vision,more accuracy,more focus on the kill zone of the animal, etc.

Should a 45+ caliber Big Bore Ele/Buff close range "stoppers" have a scope or these guns best be restricted to open sights? It could be a matter of survival.

Forum members, Any recommendations?
