I am planning to hunt deer in the Hoosier National Forest this fall with a handgun. I currently have a new Ruger GP 100 357 magnum with 6” barrel and a 1976 Liberty Ruger Blackhawk 357 magnum with 6-1/2” barrel. I have been shooting both guns practicing with iron sight at 50 yards. (I do not plan to take shot over 35-40 yards.) My old eyesight leaves me thinking I might need to mount a 2x power scope or a 1x power tube type red dot like the “UltraDot” on one or the other. My understanding is the tube type red dot has a greater field of view than the 2x power scope. Any suggestions or experience with similar situation. Also considering maybe I should forget the handgun and look for a rifle. Getting old has it's challenges.
