January Smithmoor Match Write-up

Steve, I use the animal inserts in my MVA front sight and have for years. I think you need to try different size apertures on each animal/distance to find what your eye sees the clearest. I don't believe most folks shoot the same front sight across the course with lots of different opinions. The easiest mistake to make is to use too small an insert on a given target. I like to see a good amount of light around the target and spend my time centering the target in the insert. Opening the rear eye cup to make the best of existing light is the other thing to keep in mind. After a while, I've got a pretty consistent sight plan for a given rifle and match.

I know of a few folks who swear by a pin head or post for Chickens. Some of them do very will with it as well. I think you need to try different things and see how your eye likes it.
