How many of you guys use scopes on your hunting revolvers?

More scoped than unscoped hunting revolvers...Have a reflex red dot sight on one short barrel, and the balance have irons.

I have one scoped revolver at the moment and several with irons. I prefer the traditional look but my eyes aren't what they used to be so I own several scopes and red dots I just haven't installed them yet. I think I'm still in denial about my eyes.

My only revolver is scoped, but I wouldn't call it a hunting revolver as it has not been hunted with yet.

I have gotten away from using scopes on my revolvers, but have red dots on a couple of them for hunting in poor light.
