re: So I was watching Moonshiners last night... (Rifle Thread)

putting a scoped 7mag on the neck or behind front shoulders is over kill? does it kill one deader than a thirty thirty? IMO, even at 50 yards and the thickest thicket u can sit in,, i want a scope. I used to feel the same as you, but not past about 1980 when optics really, really started improving... i believed in iron sights, then move away scope, then see under scope,,, bullshite,, when that scope comes up, i can see small limbs and vines that i never could before and count eyelashes, right handed or left handed from 5 yards to 500 yards ... Again,, my opinion..
