It is one of the most exciting times of the year for hunters - the driven hunt season. Drivers, hunting assistants, and dogs all work towards that one moment, the moment when a piece of game approaches the waiting shooter at their stand, allowing for a clean shot and the game to be ethically taken.
However, as with almost every type of hunting, the question often arises for the hunter about what the right tool for driven hunting is. Which weapon is best suited for success in driven hunts? How much does such a weapon cost? What caliber is recommended for a driven hunt? What type of sight should be mounted on such a driven hunting weapon? Should it be a riflescope, or rather a red dot sight?
Questions upon questions arise for the hunter, and especially novice hunters regularly search online for tips to find the perfect driven hunting equipment.
On Gunfinder, we have already presented 55 hunting scopes for driven hunts. However, we want to present you with a few of the suitable scopes for driven hunts.
These have been steadily increasing in popularity in recent years and are being used by more and more hunters during driven hunts. This is primarily due to their ease of use and quick target acquisition. Additionally, the fact that they have a significant weight advantage over traditional scopes, as they are generally much lighter, means that more and more shooters are opting for a red dot sight during driven hunts.
Blaser RD20
The red dot sight RD20, specifically developed for Blaser rifles, is characterized by a unique combination of a large field of view and minimal sight obstruction. The integrated Blaser saddle mount in the lightweight aluminum housing results in a harmonious appearance and a very low overall weight.
Falke LE
The reflex sight developed in Germany for the 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.
Kahles 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 moving hunting and the harshest conditions. With anti-reflection coating for clear visibility, a precise 2 MOA red dot for minimal coverage on the game body, and special safety features, it is the ideal sighting aid for a safe shot.
Falke M
The mini reflex sight for high demands is optimal for all weapons where a larger optic would not be practical. The FALKE M is also ideally suited as a driven hunting optic. The 3 MOA dot allows for both instinctive and precise shooting. The glove-operable on/off automatic can be selected in 5 brightness levels.
SigSauer Romeo 4H 1x20
The Romeo4H red dot sight from Sig Sauer - optionally available with the Ballistic Circle Dot reticle, Ballistic Circle Quadplex, or the Green Horseshoe Dot - is perfect for quick target acquisition for fast mounting on rifles and shotguns.
