I used the original rear sight to rough zero the peep and then I removed it. I zero my 36 cal at 25 meters (27yds) with a patched ball. Here in the Ozarks 30 yds is about as far as you’re going to get a shot at a squirrel. I have zeroed at 40 in the past but found that I miss a lot more of the ones at 20 yds, because of shooting over them. My 32 I have zeroed at the same distance, for the same reason.

All October orders have been fulfilled. There is still time to get sighted in before hunting season.
I bought one of these and it fit perfectly on my Kibler Woodsrunner. It’s well made and I think it’s worth every penny.
Only thing I did was take brown off the screw and colored it with Jax Black, and colored brass with Jax Brown to match everything else on my rifle.

Good information. Thanks. I was not familiar with Jax Black.
Jax Black is labeled for brass but Kibler Longrifles also recommends it for all steel surfaces. I tried it and got a beautiful antique black/gray finish.

If you care to, you could knock the contrast down a bit and patinate that lovely rear sight @Frankdkk, so it blends in with your beautiful Jax Black. I have used two solutions on mine. First method, place a couple of table spoons of vinegar and same of salt in a sandwich bag, placing the sight in and keep massaging the item around in your hands - wait for the magic to happen in a couple of minutes and remove at the desired patina. Second method, use a cold blue solution on the end of a cotton q tip and wipe down until the desired effect. When aged a little, these sights blend so they look like they have always been on the gun - makes them look streamlined and unobtrusive, I think. Tom A Hawk makes a lovely product, huh?
Cheers, Pete

Interested. Is there a way to adjust the angle of the sight in the open position so that it is perpendicular to the barrel axis?
The staff is free to move to the desired position.

Any update on the sight for the hawken tang?
Yes. I have found that by increasing the length of the sight base, I can get proper alignment on the forward tang screw. The pricing is the same.

Tom,
What diameter is the aperture? How large can that hole be drilled out without endangering the threads? I like to use a ghost ring rear sight if possible.
