clean your scope with shaving cream before you go hunting.  If you are hunting in rainy weather about every other hunt you need to reapply. This works well for binoculars too!  I keep my scope wiped down with shaving cream and a neoprene cover over it until i'm ready to shoot.   Shot a bear in the rain this year after a long hike, totally clear.  Last week had a buck walk in front of me at 80 yards in the pouring down rain 5 min before legal shooting light.  Was in a 2 point min unit and was able to easily see that it was a spike even in low light conditions in the rain (with the naked eye all I could see is was a shadow that looked like a deer).

If iron sights is what you want then get em. Personally I like a scope, but mine fogs too so will invest eventually in a new scop.

You can buy a good gaurunteed scope, Vortex crossfire or Redfield for under $150 in a 2x7 or 3x9 and you can hunt brush and longer shots.  Get a tip one pcs base and add open sights as well.  You won't be sorry, you will if you go with only open sights.  Remember scope covers, butler creek work well.
