Default RE: 200 yard shooting with Savage smokeless

Yep I can shoot 200 yards with a White U-M with a peep, I sight in at 3" high at 118 yards I am 6" low at 160 yards and 20" low at 200. 460 bullshop 115 grains of T7 with a wad, I need a large target 17" archery target with a duct tape cross on it I just center the front Fine bead on the Duct tape cross. I use a full size elk cutout also. This I just put the fine front sight just on the top of the elk. Of course I have to use a range finder. The farthest I have shot an elk with a ML is 177 yards. I do have my own range out the back door so I can practice a lot. Plus I have ol'man eye's ( I am a great grandpa). A very small peep with a small front sight eliminates the foggy sight picture.I would love to use a scope but CO. doesn't allow it and I hope they don't change (too hard to get a permit now). Somewhere I have pictures.
