    Before I was rich enough to afford a scope I used to squeeze a ‘blob’ of silver paper (foil) on the foresight when hunting in low light in bush. Was easier to pick up and didn’t noticeably affect...

    If the front sight is in focus and the target is enough in focus then you can shoot open sights quite happily. THe problem is when you close vision goes so bad that you cant keep the front sight in...

    There are plenty of veterans (65+) shooting targets with open sights, 300 to 1000 yards. Personally I'm too blind, I've got to use a scope for 25 yards smallbore.

    If you want short bbl bush pig, then 308. If you want to reach out longer range then 3006 and don't chop the bbl.

    People often overlook how well the longer tapered calibres like the 270,280, 7x 57 and 30-06 cycle through the action compared to stubbier ones.
