A Red dot scope is probably the fastest, for finding your target, while hunting. Since they are virtually zero power, they are probably as good as you can get for low light conditions. I had one on my Ruger Super Red Hawk in .44 magnum, when I first got it several years ago. One of the biggest advantages to it is that you don't have to be centered behind the scope for it to be accurate. Simply put the red dot on the target and pull the trigger.

That being said, I found that for distances beyond 40 yards, I had to brace the pistol on something solid. I braced on a tree for a shot, and being a revolver, the pressure coming from the cylinder, blew several chunks of bark in my eyes. Now I shoot it with open sights and limit myself to about 35 or 40 yards, because that is my limit to hit with it with open sights.

Long Path is telling you the right way to go. Just my 2 cents.
