RE: yet another hawkens update (too lazy to find the other)
fg got to shoot it as well.
OOoooooooh does she shoot sweet! Got the sights dead center on the first try!
1" low @ 20yrds, 8" low @ 58 yards with 40gr Pyrodex P, .490 ball and .015 patch.
When you switch to conicals like the 223,245,295,300 Powerbelt, i think you will have to file the front sight down some. The rear sight kicks ass though! Nothing is blurry and focus is easy.
Triggers also work excellent but i must Warn you to BECAREFUL if you use the set trigger. I have it set up as a suicide trigger.
Time to go give the barrel and lock a bath and call it a day.

It looks real nice. Now you have to get to a range and start tuning all these rifles. And to think only a short time ago, all you had was a Knight American USA. You're a collector..
