I'm not only new to hunting, or more accurately pesting, I'm new to guns in general.
Been blasting lead at my 50 yard target as fast as I can. I have a great space where I can set up targets at a variety of distances from say 10 to 75 yards.
...I got me a nuisance which I'm motivated to eliminate. Ready to trudge right out there and set up for the night. But, it occurs to me I ain't got the foggiest clue about shooting a target at a distance I'm not "set up" to shoot at.
What are some good strategies, tips, and considerations for going after live game at night? Particularly in regards to using a regular scope and a red/green light. (I don't have night vision.)
This particular nuisance will likely be < 30 yard shot, in bushes, and in and around water. Follow up shots are unlikely.
Thanks in advance!
