the williams peep sights work great for the money spent on them. if they make one for your rifle i would give it a try.. just buy one with a little larger aperture..Ray

I forgot all about the williams ghost ring, that would be a good choice also. you will really notice the difference between standard sights and a peep when you get a lil older MD lol..they definitely shrink those bullet hole group sizes on targets! Ray

Could you not end up with a near 'Ghost Ring' set up by simply removing the apeture from the sight????

I suppose you could yes, but williams sells a ghost ring i don't know if it will fit his rifle or not though. i forgot all about them until MD mentioned them. MD mentioned williams made a standard peep that would fit his rifle.i don't think he has a lot of options for that particular rifle as far as any after market sight is concerned lol.if you can find one that fits it, buy it lol..nothing wrong with the williams peeps..most likely what i am going to put on the Wolverine.

well i got my crappy sights back on for now. I found a good screw and then did some filing and adjusting here and there, Looks good and doesnt wiggle. It will be good enough for now until i can find a solid set up.
