[QUOTE="Akredneck, post: 2833848, member: 120339"] In Alaska you can't hunt with scopes during special ML season. My max effective range on a moose is 80 yards. Shooting a 350 grain Barnes with 80 gr black powder. Knowing I have to get close changes my hunting style, longest shot on moose with ML 30 yards/ shortest 6 yards. Alaska does allow scopes during general season, but not restricted weapon hunts. My Longest shot with 308 norma mag, rifle on animal 800+. Your weapon will choose your hunting style. If I take the 408 cheytac up on Mt side, I can hit at 1500. If I take my bow 45 yards. If you don't know your max range with a weapon figure it out, you owe it to the animal to be 100% sure. Yes there are **** hunters out there that wound animals, mainly from lack of knowledge and skill. I personally think if they allow scopes on ML it should be true black powder not alternative.
