Supaduke, yep. Though if you look at the picture of a can I posted in hunt reports thread, you will notice a pretty tight group with BL-22 :) offhand. LOL

I was shooting at about 60m. Definitely me shooting like s**t as opposed to the gun. It was only bought for cheap fun knowing full well there is likely to be 17HMR on the horizon that will be the tack driver if need be. There's really nothing better than a .22 to practice open sights on anyway with ammo being cheap as chips. That's why I don't mind being near useless with it :lol:

Might be easier to see the foresight.

(Best David Attenborough accent)
The mighty beer can is an elusive creature, making its home in fridges. A cold blooded creature, it lives in groups of 6 or 24. Preyed on by humans, the preferred hunting method is quite barbaric. It's head is first ripped off, then its guts are sucked out through the neck. The carcass is then discarded or sometimes shot at.

Actually... Here's a response from andy @ Skinner sights

"I’d go with a 3/8” X .600” front sight for the Browning" (referring to BL-22)

Guessing he means one of his blade fore sights with a 3/8" dovetail, 0.6" high. So I suppose he makes a peep for too.

Now back to Deacon and our Regular Programme
No need to buy one. Make (punch) a hole in stiff cardboard and look at the fore sight from a distance of 2 feet. If it looks better, the Skinner should be ok :)
