Scopes on a turkey gun?

It took me years to try an optic on my turkey gun.  Like most have said "what do ya need it for when your target is under 50 Yards?" Today we are hunting with guns that are designed to get tight patterns and its easy to miss a 15 yard shot if your not right on your target.  That being said I finally tried a Eotec 512 and never looked back! I love this sight! Don't matter where your head is or even if the gun is tight on your shoulder, where ever the dot is the shot is going.  It don't obstruct field of view as much as a scope and is fast to find your target. Only down side is batteries but I get a year out of a set of AA's. Also solves the problem of point of impact not being the same as point of aim like a bead sight. Just sight it in with the loads you hunt with and that's it.  Just my opinion hope it helps.
