Those globe sights make all the difference in the world. It's real tough to get a good group like that without globe sights at 100 yds. I'm glad I bought a set. I would'nt hunt without them now.

They do make a huge difference for me as well. I could easily get by with the factory sights but the globe is just so much clearer with my eyes.

Darn dog woke me up with his barking so i sent a 7.62x54 over him and that shut him up. That dog was kissing the ground so close when it went off he could have been part of the road

Time to go shoot the Optima now i guess.

well i got the Thors shooting 1 3/4" for 3 shots at 100 yards. I have wind today directly in my face and it keeps drying out my eye and turning the target fuzzy. I figured that was plenty accurate. Shooting high still but no biggy, take care of that later on.

Time to take the Wolf out now that i have the stock tightened up again and see how it does.
