I have spent the last 5-6 months trying to become accurate with open sights on my new 475 revolver and have finally made some great progress. I just went out and set up 5 4" ballons at between 45 and 60 yds. I then took 5 shots resting off of my daypack on a fallen tree and broke them all. Feeling cocky I put the next 5 at ranges from 60-80yds. Back to the field rest and once again all 5 went down! Since my only pistol experience is with a scope I was feeling a little iffy about hunting with one equipped with open sights but **** I figure since I have never shot a deer or bear at over 50yds, open sights shouldn't be a problem at all. I certainly feel confident that any deer or bear within 75 yds is in great danger of becoming my dinner!
I shot about 100 rounds a month and spent countless hours working on sight picture and trigger control and now things are starting to come together.
Now to be able to do it offhand with no rest.
