After sighting in the new red-dot sight on my Ruger .44 carbine, I took a night-time, four-wheeler ride at the deer lease, looking for wild hogs. Didn't see any hogs, but I did run into this guy coming towards me on a cow path, down a pipeline. He stopped, I stopped, he stared into the headlights, I took the rifle off the gun rack and turned the dot "on" to the lowest intensity setting. He figured it was time to leave the path and cut across for the wood line; I cut him off before he could make it. About thirty yards, trotting, DRT (dead right there). The forearm of the rifle is hiding a massive wound high on the shoulder/backbone.
The rifle project included return-to-zero rings for the red-dot, on a custom base, and ghost ring rear, and white-line front post as back-up to the primary (red-dot) sight. The set-up works very well for quick, two-eyes open, brush hunting.
