You both are quite right for the purposes of deer or small bear.

However, I must confess my sins.

I had a Bushmaster Varminter for years that I used for hunting ground hogs on the farm. I also had an old manlift with a 40ft boom. I used to make my self a high nest and make the ground hogs very uncomfortable.

I used a Bushnell Elite 6-24x40. I would have the rifle dialed in, get the manlift way up, turn off the motor and take in the view. I still have the scope if anyone is interested.









I know I should have not cheated, hunted them with a sharp stick, but so many ground hogs, so little time.
