[QUOTE="Packrat 6, post: 1038588, member: 80288"] Probably going to get some flack on this, but at those ranges, just fix Bayonet and go after them on foot! For short range Hog hunting, you can track nearly 3 times as fast over iron sights, especially if they get PO'd and decide to pay you a visit! Heck, at 25 - 50 yds, don't even need a Rifle, rocks work just fine, but use BIG rocks. Not a great admirer of scopes or bolt action rifles for short range hog hunting, particularly in brush! But then I was trained by the Military and didn't even know what a scope was until age 50.....:D!...Sure miss the Automatic setting of the selector switch. Just noticed you are a newby, so ignore my comments above, was just kidding you, however most of my Hog hunting is at VERY close range because of brush!.... Someone will be along shortly to advise you because I really DON'T use scopes that close. Packrat [ATTACH]43495.vB[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
