Stephen.
There it is all mounted and test fired. I put it in the center of the flats and that is where it hit at 100, 185 and 200 yards.
I will leave it as it is. It shoots 6" low at 100 ladder down but this is not a problem I know where to put the blade above the rear sight. holding the flats of the front even with the top of the ladder down Lawrence makes the post a very pronounced silhouette to hold center at 100 yds. That is perfect for the way I like to hold the front blade. It is dead on at 185 yards with the ladder up and about 2.5" low at 200. I only threw a few rounds together like what I will use for the hunt and just shot three rounds per distance and none went over a 3" spread horizontal and 1-1/4" vertical.
If you haven't tried the 3F OE powder in the .44-77 you might give it a try.
I used a WLR primer
.023" card cut from a serial box above the powder and a 1/8" lube wad and one under the bullet. I left out the 1/16" cork for this load because I used 1/30 T/L alloy.
The bullet was of the original Sharps profile cast at 485 gr seated 1/8" in the case with a slight taper crimp from a 310 tool and die so I can carry it in a belt.
The powder load was 77 gr of 3F Olde Eynsford.
This load has been very reliable in the little .44 with the load combination above.
Stephen I want to thank you very much for this fine sight. I know you said that you don't want anything, but I will send you and the Family out for supper next weekend.
