Default Best scope, fiber optics, and red dot sights?

Just wanted to get everyones best experiences with sights, scopes, and red dots.
I have shooting a Moss 835, as you probably all know, and was wondering what to chuck onto the thing before the season begins.

I bought a Burris red dot for my 835 during the off season, but I think I'm gonna try it on a .22. I like the thought of open sights and they work for me. I'll stick with them.

You should check out a Simmons Pro Diamond 4x32 scope. I started
using one several years ago and can't imagine not going with out it.
With a scope you get to see the turkey unobstructed by the bead and
barrel.

Scopes arent bad, I'd just get some good truglo rifle sights. Cant beat them for turkey IMO.

Campo I would highly recommend the Tru-glo Pro-series Magnum Gobble dot fiber optic sights.It is all metal,fully adjustable.And I love mine.I am getting another set for my 11-87.Some guns aren't true center from the factory,and you may need a set of sights that are fully adjustable,not just some that clip on.The front bead is also real small,but is plenty bright,that helps to pin-point your aiming spot on longer shots,even better on long barreled guns..Bigger beads,will cover too much of the target area on long shots,making pin-point accuracy more of a guessing game.They are well worth the money.Here's a link to BPS.

Good advice 99,this also is what I have on 2 of my turkey guns and really like them too...I would also add the fibre optic sites in low light conditions have proved themselves invaluable for me throughout the years...
