The only game animal I ever shot with iron sights was a deer that I shot with a 20 gauge pump with just a bead. It was running full tilt across my path and I hit it through the shoulder/lungs with a Brenneke slug at about 40 yards, through an opening in the alders. It dropped instantly and died quickly. All my hunting rifles have scopes on them and most don't have iron sight backup. If it's too nasty to hunt with a scoped rifle, it's too nasty for me.
