RE: To scope or not to scope?
You really want to hunt with the raw gun.....the way it used to be.
You yearn for the looks in your rifle that is like your grandfathers " thutty-thutty" back when only liberals and rebellious ones had scopes to cheat their way through the woods.
You hear a beckoning that wants the hunt to be unemcumbered with needless paraphanalia. You love the classic looks of the " man' s" rifle and the scope is pure wimp allaround.
You just know that the buck of a lifetime will come running through the woods and there will be no mistaking it...it' ll be a superb trophy and having that glass on the receiver will harm the chances of taking that running shot as it runs by you at 15 feet.
OK...wake up now...you' ve had your dream...put that 4X scope on and go hunting!!!
