Remington 760/7600 30-06 with a 3-9 with see through mounts
I know several people with see through mounts, none of them have ever used them on an animal. They all go straight to the scope. Shorter scope mounts are better as they allow a better cheek weld for ease of sighting and accuracy.Quote:

For a bush gun hunting moose or bear I would recommend one of the common .30 cal cartridges that the others have listed (I prefer .308). I would lean towards a repeater though, lever or semi-auto.

Years ago, I used guns with see-through bases, and regarded the open sights as my primary sighting system, with the scope as something "nice to have" if I had a long shot and lots of time. After a few years I found that I never used the scope, so I just took it off. A little different perspective.Quote:
