Not to throw stones at ingenuity, but why not just drill a hole? Most of the commercial peeps are round. Drilling a hole is much easier than filing a V.

That is some real nice shooting with your makeshift peep sight. Good luck on your pig hunt.

.
Maybe. But suspect filing on the edge of small insert was easier than trying to drill a hole in it.

the reason for the v was I was originally making the slot larger so I just used the small v shaped file. then I got the idea to turn it over and make a peep out of it since the v was there I just stayed with that. Now on my 22 mag I did make it round and it does work even better then the v. I am currently trying to get a replacement piece for my 357 so I can start over with roung
