And even with scope, it's less weight and easier to carry than any rifle, especially in heavy undergrowth and pines.
I hunt both scope and iron sights, depending on conditions.
That's why I love my Super Blackhawk Hunter, I can remove the scope, put it back on in the field and it returns to zero every time, so I have the best of both worlds.
Thanks. Hadn't thought about low light. Makes sense.
