Pulled the trigger on LP08

383 magnum · 06-09-2007, 07:50 PM

I shot the arty again today this time with 124 grain bullets. It's not shooting as far to the left as I initially thought so I won't have to try to adjust the sights after all. I just needed a little more practice shooting it and a bigger target to see where it was hitting. The rear sight leaf is sliding up a little after firing. Is there a way to tighten it? I think it may be because the spring on the sliding bar has lost some tension.
I have a repro stock but haven't tried that yet. Don't know how much I will continue shooting it anyway since it is all original. Even the grips are numbered. I may have to start looking for a reblued/mismatched arty for a shooter if I can find one cheap (LOL). I appreciate all of the tips you all have given me.
