RE: I hate open sights - part 2
ORIGINAL: gleason.chapman ORIGINAL: sproulman yes, i have experience with RMC v-peep..ok, here we go.. i like the GREEN front bead.not red..i bought a set of the extra fiber things for front sight.. only front bead needs to be clear..yes, RMC has the fiber inserts, i think 3 reds,3 greens come in pack..if you dont like red, call them and ask if they can just send you like 4 greens and 2 reds in case you want to put red back in.. big difference with THE GREEN..you take a lighter or match to melt the green one on front sight..i messed up the first green and did it over.. good to have the inserts with you in woods in case you break one,that could happen.. on deer hunting,i use DEAD on hold, this means you put sight dead on target,on target shooting with roundball, i use6 o clock hold, or i put the front sight say at 25 yds,at bottom of a 1 inch circle.. with that sight i can shoot roundballs almost in same hole at 50 yds.. t/c hawkins .50cal,490 hornady rb,t/c vent linerrb,.018 bore butter patch,60 grs of 2f, 4f in pan,bore button,rmc frizzen,fuller flints[target] deer hunting bucks , powerbelt 295/348 hollow point, 80 grs of 2f, 1 and 1/2 inch groups at 100 yds with open sights.. hope this helps..rmc is about 30 minutes from me, mr.rightnour is one nice person, you should see the guns he builds,all muzzleloaders..i like their set-up, if you have question they will forward you into the gunsmith,thats nice.. |

ORIGINAL: sproulman great you can see the rear sight clearly,mine was just a little fuzzy..like i said., you eye cannot adjust to see front sight and rear clear,way our eyes are, i guess.. only front bead needs to be clear..yes, RMC has the fiber inserts, i think 3 reds,3 greens come in pack..if you dont like red, call them and ask if they can just send you like 4 greens and 2 reds in case you want to put red back in.. big difference with THE GREEN..you take a lighter or match to melt the green one on front sight..i messed up the first green and did it over.. good to have the inserts with you in woods in case you break one,that could happen.. on deer hunting,i use DEAD on hold, this means you put sight dead on target,on target shooting with roundball, i use6 o clock hold, or i put the front sight say at 25 yds,at bottom of a 1 inch circle.. with that sight i can shoot roundballs almost in same hole at 50 yds.. t/c hawkins .50cal,490 hornady rb,t/c vent linerrb,.018 bore butter patch,60 grs of 2f, 4f in pan,bore button,rmc frizzen,fuller flints[target] deer hunting bucks , powerbelt 295/348 hollow point, 80 grs of 2f, 1 and 1/2 inch groups at 100 yds with open sights.. hope this helps..rmc is about 30 minutes from me, mr.rightnour is one nice person, you should see the guns he builds,all muzzleloaders..i like their set-up, if you have question they will forward you into the gunsmith,thats nice.. |
RE: I hate open sights - part 2
chap, i only use the front bead at bottom of a 1 inch black circle on white paper for TARGET shooting..i like to shoot in same holes and you cant do that with the DEAD aim center hold..
i use dead aim center hold for hunting deer..i never shoot past 100 yds so rmc sight will not cover deer,most bucks i get are at 20 yds. so, 2 different aiming points,1 for target,1 for deer..about 2 weeks before deer season, i adjust my sights from target hold to deer hold..also, i use powerbelt not roundball,so i have to adjust each year anyhow.. pm me if you need any advice.. |
