Happens to the best of us. Sounds like you need an adjustable aperture to bring the front sight into focus (like I do).Put the Williams sight on my kid's muzzleloader today. Took it outside and quickly realized that I couldn't see the front sight......I had her come out to see what she thought, and she said "What do you mean it's not clear? It looks awesome!"
I ended up putting in the fine crosshair and the fiber optic stacked because that's what she liked the best.
I couldn't even see the crosshairs. I'm going to have to go to the eye doctor.... again. I have to see what is going on to get the gun sighted in at least. My eyes are getting so crappy as I age.
I'm going to go sob by myself now. lol
Sweet little setup though.
PS: The screw(s) that came with the sight were all too long by ~.030 and I had to make a trip to the grinder.....

Absolutely. An adjustable aperture just allows you to enlarge or (usually) reduce the size hole you’re looking through so that the eye can focus on the front sight. It’s an aperture/depth of field optical phenomenon.Admittedly, I know very little about peep sights. Is that legal to use in Colorado?
Well looks like you got the elevation up to about where it needs to be.FINALLY got to shoot with a month until my hunt. I did shoot it a couple of weeks ago but at 50 yards it was about 8" low with the rear sight maxed out at the top
Local gunsmith shimmed up the rear sight and today I shot this two shot group at 50. Not bad. Bummer is at 100 I was off the paper and I THINK high. 95 grains triple 7, with 385 lead conical.
Thinking next session will be at 75 and a bigger target.View attachment 154513
At 25 you should be at 0 for a 100 yard zero.Any guesses how high I should be at 25 yards with my 325 grain ELR Powerbelts and 110 grains of triple 7? Sighting in my gun with my new Williams sights.
Thank you!At 25 you should be at 0 for a 100 yard zero.
I prefer the .019”For those that have tried them do you prefer the .019 or the .029 for the front fiber optic?
Thanks. I am sort of torn between being bright enough or being too big and covering too much target.I prefer the .019”
