If you don't tell yourself...I can't shoot! The sights are blurry. You'd be surprised how well you can shoot at closer ranges. Up to 60-70 yds I can keep it in the kill zone. So, I use that as my max distance, but try to get much closer.

The good part about shooting so close is you can use mild loads. Which works for me.

Sort of an old man system. Open sights, close shots, and mild loads.
I tried that and can shoot fairly "instinctive" to about 50 yards which is what I do with handgun but they are just so blurry on a rifle or ML'er (especially the rear) and I've always been an extremist when it comes to the perfection of my shooting that I just can't get over it. Glasses that help my close up vision destroys my distance vision. So, devils glass it has to be I guess!
