    yep, i have put one of the Zerotech ones on my 10/22. makes shooting rabbits feel a bit more fun than it already is!

    would be quite keen to go for a bush stalk and have it set up on my 308 to see how it goes.

    I used Red. few times for goat hunting on 22 in NI, but mostly in video games. To me, Red. is for other purposes, pest control or... close quarters engagement. I still prefer the iron sight, the blur is a fun for me, feel the shots. Yes of course, identify the target first, check twice both for the target and background.
    So be it

    years ago when I FIRST SAW A LEUPOLD 1x4 mounted low on a BLR and could see the barrel in bottom 1/4 of scope...it was love at first sight...pun intended...it gives you the shotgun quick point thing....I do not even notice it ...but my mind does and it makes for quick pointing onto target.

    Got one on my 308. easy to use and fast to get on target.
    Only drawback is lack of magnification.

    I use a Bushnell trs25 on my 44. Bloody impressed with it and makes shooting in the bail a lot easier. My rifle fell off the bonnet of my truck onto the road directly onto the scope and it still held zero after that!
