Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Pointed my spotting scope at a Warden

WCB,MY opinion was and is that the OP was quite OK to do what he did. What my comment was directed at are those who actually DO use the 'scope sights on their rifle to ID their targets. That is NOT responsible gun handling in any way shape or form."sneaking" through the woods, insisting that hunter orange would rectify the situation etc is pure horsecrap. Hunters sneak, and as for the colors-well colorblind guys couldn't tell you the difference. Crappy way to lay the responsibility off onto someone else when it is the 100% responsibility of the gunner to be safe in his/her actions. A telescope mounted on a riflestock for ease of use is completely alright. Shooting at someone for pointing anything while in the woods?? Nope. Returning fire otoh is a horse of a different color.
