[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 330319, member: 704"] I have number of globe front sights by Lyman like he is talking about. They have interchangable blades and I like a thin squared off blade. His recommended 150 yards for this type of rifle reminded me of an article I Outdoor Life 30 years ago. I have been trying since yesterday to remember the authore. but give up. Even with a bad memory one remembers things that impress you whether brilliant or foolish. Anyway this fellow had an article on the lever action in 357 magnum. He said if used for deer sized game one had to limit themselves to 50 yards to ethically kill deer. I think it was less than a year later this same fellow wrote an article in the same magazine about the 357 magnum in a handgun and said it was adequate to 100 yards. From experience I know the rifle picks up about 300 fps with a 158 gr bullet so how in the world did this author think a handgun could kill twice as far? [/QUOTE]
