Are you still able to see the target with that sight? I am assuming one would have to aim pretty high to compensate for the bullet drop.
I have a .450 marlin and i am keen to see how far i can lob a bullet with her
As long as you have enough elevation on the rear sight, an adjustable aperture, and a front sight insert of the appropriate diameter, some patience, and the ability to process the information provided by actually shooting at targets, you should be pleasantly surprised at how far you can hit the right sized circle.
