12 yards is probably a very important distance like window to bird feeder

I had a boy bring his dad's rifle to a shoot , "my dad says I can use it as long as I don't move the sights , he has it perfect for shooting coons in the barn"

it was a nice Marlin 22lr lever gun with scope , it was sighted in for about 20-25 feet that was the only distance that mattered for his dad.

had him put dads rifle in the rack and grabbed him a program gun we could adjust the scope all we needed to keep him on target since we were shooting 40,60,77,100 meters that day.

12 yards is the cross-over in a 22 cal, then it should fall back at 20-25 yards in the bell curve

peep sights are a lot faster in finding squirrels in the trees, unless you are a believer in the "wall of lead"shooting

Learn to use the peep to shoot other distances just by halving the front sight in the peeps circle either high or low on the circle.

If I remember that gun they have substituted the front sight to a "post" from what should be a circle with different centers that can get screwed into it.

It's a squirrel face looking at you then in the front sight when you are lined up.

Got that right Law Dog....then you are deadly on a Richardsons ground squirrel colony, so you want to only show your head- as Clint would say- Make MY Day- twap

like this one ?

the mossbergs mostly came with them but it may have been an option that a lot of people just put on

this is the wide blade , I have narrow blades and circles
