[QUOTE="Displaced_Vol, post: 5295250, member: 20484"] For those of your shooting a scope, was there a significant adjustment period? I’ve been hesitant to go that route as I don’t really like shooting through scopes to begin with & to rationalize it further I don’t want to limit my ability to observe the whole scene, if that makes sense? I’ve been intrigued by the red dots but it has not been a priority expense wise. I have not killed a bunch of turkeys by any means, I think i am about 10 total with one good miss several years ago. Got very lazy and a group of 3 Toms walked in silent and I did not make a good mount before I shot in a hurry. 90+% it was a clean miss as I walked to where the bird was and could see where I shaved the tall grass back towards my set up. Anyway, I added a hi viz bead to the 835, the affinity already had one and that’s what I’ve been going with and have been hesitant to change thus far. [/QUOTE]
