Just mounted a BSA Red Dot 30mm on my 77-44, with thoughts of using it on Tex. Boar, with emphasis on the dark side of shooting (night/dusk/early dawn that is). Have never used one of the things befor, and had to get a B-Square base that adapted the Ruger slots so that I could mount the BSA which has Weaver base. Sort of a goofy looking thing when you compair it to a regular scope. Rifle shoots the 310 Lee GC. with full power loads well under 2" at 50yds which is all I am after, as average range out of a stand will be about 35 yds. Am looking to talk with somebody with experiance with one of these Red Dots on short distance rifles, and preferably someone who has shot boar with one in dim light conditions. Am also interested in talking with anyone who has shot boar with 310Lee GC out of a 44Mag, and the composition of the bullet. Shot my last one with 405 OHAS PB out of 45-70 over 26 gr. or 2400, nose softened WW/water quenched. 4 Legs in the air was all I could see after recoil. However never being satisfied with sucess, just have to try something different this go around. As always, I thank in advance all who respond to this thread.
