Well I'm new to hunting too. I haven't tried anyting remotley similar since I was a kid shooting at birds and possoms with my air guns and my blow gun.
I'm going hunting this year in 2003. My only adequate rifles to shoot at big game are my M1A's and maybe my Benelli M3 with slugs.
I think I'm going to use the M1A scout.
How realistic is it to shoot pigs and deer with an open sighted rifle in the hilly terrain of California? I also have an aimpoint red dot scope with a 3 moa dot for the scout. That dot covers 3 inches at 100 yards so I think it'll be adequate, but I don't know yet.
I'm not counting on shooting anything at really long range either.
What say you about an M1A and open sights?
