I think I'm going to disagree with you a bit black mamba...I say "think" because I'm not completely sure what you're saying...These are my main hunting weapons. What I can tell you from over a quarter century of hunting with handguns, is that I find red dots to be absolutely faster than any scope, accurate as heck, EASY ON MY AGING EYES, and the bottom line is that my bullet hits whatever that red dot is on when I pull the trigger.
If you fire your gun a couple times to "see if it's on" before hunting season, and then not again until it's time to shoot an animal, you may have problems finding the dot. And again, that's because you're not looking in the "right place" because it's actually pointing somewhere else. You need to practice more and learn the gun a bit better, so that you have a good idea of where that dot's going to be when you bring the gun up.
When I first get into my stand when I hunt, when I'm settled in, I usually hunt with my pistol across my lap. But I turn on the dot and bring the gun up to the rail a few times and sight on different objects like trees or stumps at various distances, and just to see WHAT ANGLE I NEED TO BRING UP THE GUN, SO THAT MY EYE IS MOSTLY ALIGNED IN THE RIGHT AREA SO THAT THE DOT IS VISIBLE FROM THE MOMENT I LOOK THROUGH THE SIGHT.
If you can bring up the gun so that you can catch SOME glimpse of the dot, the subconscious just takes over and centers the dot. Then it's just a matter of mechanics.
All the sights you see are shot out to 100yds. All are great performers with tight groups at that range. (Better than any shotgun I own. Rifles aren't allowed in my county) I don't have easy access to a range over 100yds, but I never really see anything at those distances anyway. Everything I shoot is mostly between 40 and 65 yards anyway. However, I feel that any of these guns would perform well at 150yds, and at least 2 I would shoot with confidence out to 200yds if I were able to sight in with them and practice at those ranges before hand.
I guess I'm just saying I've tried the scope thing, and since I put a red dot on a handgun in the early 90's, I've never looked back. I have 'em on shotguns, rifles, and my Marlin '94. I'm a big fan.
All that being said, while stated earlier, mostly I hunt in close conditions. I own many rifles that sport glass. If I consistently shot over 100yds, I think a scope would be the way to go.
P.S. The .357 I use 180gr. Black Talon's. The 7.62X39 is bored .308. I use 150gr. handloads in it.
