Outstanding work once again Tom. The sight looks great!

What size aperture did you go with?

Thanks Willie.

I started out with a .032" aperture which is probably too small, but I won't know for sure until the front sight is made. I figure it's a lot easier to make it larger than make it smaller. Chin

Beautiful work Tom!

Did you make the whole thing from scratch or were some parts purchased?

Ed: I purchased a box of 1-72 screws to use for the for the windage adjustment because I didn't want to deal with cutting a 1-72 thread 5/8" long, other than that, all of the parts were made from scratch.

Nothing funny about getting older Tom. Happyno

I used to be able to use a .040" aperture, but those days are long gone.

I have a few .22 rimfire target rifles, but it usually finds it's way onto this one.

Nice looking rifle Willie, is it a .308?

I'm sure the rifle is capable of 1/2 MOA, are you? Big Grin
