Re: Shortened , skinner sights
Great pictures! By the subject I was expecting the sights to be shortened. I don’t know why you did it but I like it.

Re: Shortened , skinner sights
Welcome to the forum from CT and thanks for sharing the photos of your rifle's modification. I hope you'll share pics of the saddle, too. Very interesting.

Re: Shortened , skinner sights
Thanks. A shorter barrel makes sense for a saddle mounted varmint gun. And the single shot t speaks well for your skills.
