Re: The new self-made rear sight
the snow drifts are higher than my targets right now and i wont be able to find my brass in the snow. i have mounted the sight and it looks very nice. the aperture is smaller than steves guns and the skinner sight but dont think thats a problem. joe
Re: The new self-made rear sight
Of course the sight will work on any caliber gun, You just have to mark Your own distance correction.txbrown wrote:beautiful sight. are they in stock? will it work with the factory sight on 38 spl / 357 mag caliber? If so, how do I order?
Now I have only 1 ready to sell, if You want to buy please contact me via e-mail or PM.

Sometimes I have 1 sight ready to ship, but usually I make it for 2 weeks.
Re: The new self-made rear sight
I had made some shots with lead bullets made of wheel weights (bullet speed is around 984 ft/s, .454 Casull, 20 inches, Lee 252 RF). The distance corrections (0 is for 164 ft) on the rear sight were:
197 ft - 0.75 turn up;
253 ft - 1.75 turn up;
328 ft - 2.75 turn up.
1 turn is 0.5 mm.

Re: The new self-made rear sight
I glanced through your link and didn't see anything about windage adjustment. Is there anything built in that will let the operator move the group left or right?

I would say you'd have to move the front sight for that.Steelbanger wrote:I glanced through your link and didn't see anything about windage adjustment. Is there anything built in that will let the operator move the group left or right?
