Fortunately most Alaskan guides don't read these threads because they are out in the field hunting with scopes on their rifles - and that bear who's paw I am holding was in such thick pucker brush that without a scope it is doubtful we would have even been able to see him well enough to get a shot.

So I guess it is true, as least as far as the bear was concerned, a scope can get you killed grin


Come on Phil, didn’t someone tell ya that “when the light gets dim....iron sights are in”!
wink I’ve got irons on my rifle, and hope to “never” use them....especially in poor light! memtb
