Re: Iron Sight Preferences?

I think apertures stink and avoid them.

I saw the article by Seyfried years ago and made my own set of Patridge sights for a Ruger #1 which worked great except that they weren't all that good when aiming at anything small.




Aw, c'mon, how do you really feel?

I agree. I've used aperture sights for hunting on a couple of trips, and will never make that mistake again. I have enough trouble with them in strong light, and find them utterly useless in bad. The U and square notch stuff with a sourdough post are fine on the range, but if they're large enough to pick up quickly, they're too coarse to be of any use to me for serious hunting.
