When I went back to try and edit, on that it only showed the one time, was afraid it would delete both. Thanks
For some reason I was having a time just get them posted to start with. Thank You very much again sir.
And the ghost ring came with it, I may remove it and try the factory buckhorn, as it is still in place.

That ghost ring sight hole looks big...what size is it? The larger you go on the ghost ring your accuracy goes away a bit at longer distance.
Maybe you can find a smaller apperature.
Great shooting with the first rifle and bet that .444 kicks a bit!
Not sure how large it is, but it is pretty good size.
I will measure it later, I've thought about a smaller aperture, it's a shame that I haven't shot it no more than I have.

Pulled it out earlier, 15/64's is the opening. :o
She's got a little kick, with some loads, but not like some of those ole heavy loaded obsolete government calibers.
Ya know the one I'm talking bout. :lol:

The one on my Ruger Bisley Blackhawk .45 is .216 and seems to work okay out to 50 yds.

.2355 is what it translate to.
If I ever hunt with it, I'll probably put a 1x4 scope on it and be done. :o :lol: :lol:
