It is probably one of the most exciting times of the year for hunters - the driven hunt season. Drivers, hunting assistants and hounds are all working towards that one moment when a piece of game takes over from the shooter waiting in his stand, who can apply a clean shot and bring the game down in a manner befitting the hunter.
However, as with almost every type of hunting, the hunter is often faced with the question of which is the most suitable tool for driven hunts. Which weapon is best suited for successful driven hunts? How much does such a weapon cost? Which caliber is recommended for a driven hunt? What optics should be mounted on such a driven hunt weapon? Should it be a telescopic sight or rather a red dot sight?
Questions upon questions arise for the hunter and especially young hunters regularly search the web for tips to find the perfect driven hunt equipment.
On Gunfinder, we have already presented 55 hunting scopes for a driven hunt. In the following, however, we would like to present you a few of the rifle scopes suitable for driven hunts.
These riflescopes have become increasingly popular in recent years and are used by more and more hunters on driven hunts. This is mainly due to their easy handling and fast target acquisition. But also the fact that they have a clear weight advantage over classic scopes, in that they are usually considerably lighter, ensures that more and more shooters are opting for a red dot sight on driven hunts.
Blaser RD20
Developed specifically for Blaser rifles, the RD20 red dot sight features a unique combination of great visibility and minimal field of view coverage. The Blaser saddle mount integrated into the light metal housing results in a harmonious appearance as well as a very low overall weight.
Falcon LE
The reflex sight developed in Germany for highest demands and maximum performance even under extreme conditions. The compact design with integrated and loss-proof Picatinny quick-release mount combines with any weapon to form a perfect unit.
Bald HELIA RD
With the new HELIA Red Dot closed (RD-C) KAHLES presents for the first time a closed and robust reflex sight, which has been perfected for motion hunting and for the most adverse conditions. With anti-reflective coating for a clear view, a precise 2 MOA red dot for minimal coverage on the game body and special safety details, it is the ideal sighting aid for safe shooting.
Falcon M
The mini reflex sight for large demands is optimal for all weapons where a larger optic would not be practical. The FALKE M is also ideal as a driven hunt optic. The 3 MOA dot allows for both instinctive and accurate shooting. The glove-operated on/off switch, can be selected in 5 brightness levels.
SigSauer Romeo 4H 1x20
Sig Sauer's Romeo4H illuminated dot sight - available with either the Ballistic Circle Dot reticle, Ballistic Circle Quadplex or the Green Horseshoe Dot - is perfect for fast target acquisition for quick mounting on rifles and shotguns.
