Open sights I promise!!!
« on: June 07, 2009, 07:13:36 AM »
Here is a target that I shot not 10min ago and I promise I used the open sights on my 460 magnum.  I can't wait to get this baby scoped!!!  I was using crossman CPHP's that I had cleaned and dry lubed with graphite, "Grackels Beware".  I painted the front sight a bright green and changed out the rear sights with the one I took off my 350 mag so I could use the sights better and all I can say is WoW!

Looks like you really are enjoying that 460, Rocky.  That old girl deserved somebody who would take care of her and exercise her regularly.  Look forward to seeing more of your posts about her in the future.  Take Care!  Terry

Excellent shots and group with your open sight 460 Magnum.  You should shoot a target sheet and post it in the 2nd  25 Yards Open Sights Rifle match.....before you put a scope on her.
