Took the two rifles I plan on using this yr in the Southern zone. Just wanted two double check The rifles and ammo for them the 35 rem with leverevolution Ammo. It was a little high and right. Got it over and down two clicks. Then I got my 8mm. Lacoruna one of the most widely Use deer rifles in the northeast. My last two rounds In the 10 had at 80 yds. With a red dot . Never used A red dot for hunting before but I am giveing it a try. And then I tryed my 8+56 out , I have to change the front Sight , I just can't see it , it looks like a pyramid it comes to A sharp point that to me disappears when I am trying to use the 6 o'clock hold. So more work to be done.
