[QUOTE="Aldon, post: 362431, member: 20047"] OK, So I know that most of the long range shooting will occur with optics. But I am staring to plan another project so I would appreciate input. I have to finish two current projects so I have some time to decide what I really want but I am looking for that all around type of mountain gun. I am thinking 7 or 300wsm, .308, 30-06 or something along that line, short barreled, maybe 20 inches....Not sure of contour but medium weighted... I am leaning towards B&C lightweight aluminum bedded stocks/ This is going to be my roughing it gun and I want iron sights as a back up to the scope. So finally where I need some advice, who makes aftermarket iron sites that will allow decent range shot. I am thinking deer sized game at 200-250 yards with open sights should be doable with the right set up. I do not like peep sites especially for this range.... ideally I would like low light capability. Does such an animal exist:) If you have put something together similar, give us the particulars, I am not decided on much of the above. Thanks [/QUOTE]
