Royce, in the BPTR Creedmoor game, we have guys doing exactly what you describe, albeit with blackpowder cartridge rifles, but scope scores are generally lucky to be as good as irons, and very rarely better. Even then, just by a few points. And these are old creeky guys that have trouble seeing their shoelaces and the like.
Irons are much underrated - but generally by guys that don't shoot them.
