After working the sights over on this dude I fought heat and 'skeeters' yesterday for three rounds....all I could stand before I got my arse eaten up! First shot was 10" high so I got busy with the 3 cornered file and lowered the V notch in the rear barrel sight! Didn't know where the POI was gonna be as this was a completely new install for sights so I just centered up both sights with the top flat! I fired two more shots and they went where you can see in photo. Buffalo is 3.5" tall from top of hump down to the brisket area. Shot this at 65 yards! Didn't have to tap either sight one iota! Now all I got to do is 'stake' the sights!

Nice work, and shooting.

Where did you get that one Sharpy? Nice rifle!!!! I have an old GRRW Leman perc. 50 I got for an”wedding rifle” back in ‘79 that I have kilt a truck load of deer and hogs with !!!

Good shootin’! BTW hot here too I spent day in A/C shop. Got a new powder horn about 98% done. Needs a stopper and a strap.

Got from Tom Watson over in Georgia! I have two of Tom's builds....he does great work! The other is a full-stocked flinter that shoots really good!

Well its a nice rifle!

Posted this before, but here’e mine.

Outstanding!!

Wonder how inappropriate an early Virginia butt plate would be on a 54 or 58 Leman? Fine looking rifles guys.

Very inappropriate but what the heck. I'm planning on doing exactly that on my next build.
