I have recently acquired a Winchester Model 88 in .308 caliber and am trying to decide if I want to put a scope on it.
Accuracy is good with open sights, I can put the shots in a pie plate at 100 yards.
I plan on using this gun for my woods carry gun as it is light. North American game is on the menu, mainly mule deer but possibly an elk and similar.
I figure if I put a scope on it I extend the range past 200 yards while adding increased expense and weight. I also don't have a lot of money for a scope.
Thanks in advance for your opinions.
