I'd say save your money and use the iron sights, but if you're bound and determined to put a scope on your muzzy, I'd got with the cross hairs. Just a personal preference for me.

My son Cody has a Red dot by Bushnell that he likes. You can judge the distance some what by how big the dot is on the animal. I personally like keeping it simple and e use open sites.

I've got a sightron with the crosshairs mounted on my omega, and she's a beauty. I would suggest that you go with whatevers the most cofortable with your eye and if you have scopes with crosshairs on your rifles then stick with crosshairs, if not then maybe think about goin with a red dot that's not real high end give it a whirl at the range. Though i've heard a lot of guys have had problems with red dots! Just my thoughts though.

I couldn't decide on what to shoot, but knew i didn't like open sights, it just covers too much of the target out past 50yds.
Then my buddy showed me his dot scope and i immediately was skeptical when the dot was moving all over the place when i moved my head even the slightest bit on the stock, so i chalked that one before it even started.
So i went up to Sportmans whse and he pulled out three scopes. A Leupold, a Nikon and a Sightron and told me "i'll bet you $50 i know which one you'll like the best (thinking he'd say Leupold).
To my surprise, i liked the Sightron the best and he laughed and said "that's the one everyone picks, and not because it's the cheapest, it simply outshines the others".
So needless to say....i'm headed back to the range to sight in my new Sightron 1X scope on my Knight Extreme.
