[QUOTE="wboregon, post: 1458800, member: 102916"] Yeah that's a given. But scoping out a deer with your rifle scope really isn't negligent like weiserbucks was getting at. if you've got a deer at distance and you want to size him up better then your 8x/10x binos will do, I see nothing wrong with using your scope. I also feel like most people getting shot in the woods aren't getting shot by people trying to get a better look at a buck through their scope, Most are probably ND's from their hunting partners, followed by crazy bubba's just slinging lead into the bushes at everything that moves. followed by homocidal assholes who for what ever reason think it's okay to shoot at another hunter over some sort of slight. I had an experience with the later type 2 years ago during our open cascade elk season. couple dudes were up on a ridge top hunkered down and weren't visible to me and my partner, apparently we walked through "their" area and they start shooting over our heads to try and scare us off.
