Slower, requires more measurements, and not very handy unless you are shooting a course with set ranges and have it pre measured. Ill take a Lever action for brush hunting, and if you want a scope? Get a variable power and turn it down.....
Side Mount?...Scout rifles arent side mounted...you use your scope and if it breaks you take it off...and then use the open sights...no side mounts. The scope is like using a trijicon acog. You have a big field of view and still able to shoot with both eyes open. Its a quicke action close range rifle. nothing pre measured about it at the range.
