That is how I use mine. I have painted a highlighted line on the 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, and 300 yard marks. I only shoot one load out of those guns. It is repeatable from day to day cleaning to cleaning year to year. I also fill the 0- mark on the base with white pint so it stands out. I am posting a picture but man that sight is starting to look haggard. Ron

Once you find the load you want to shoot on a regular basis, you can flip the scale plate over and engrave your own markings on the reverse side. A hardened nail or chisel point and a straight edge makes good lines in the aluminum plate. Or you can make new plates with aluminum, brass, plastic, etc.

Gotcha Idahoron!

Thanks,
