I would be very interested to see it if it were possible. Thanks. Pete (PS. I heard there was a basic formula for arm length - sling len...

I know how it is Jason, the money tree just doesn't seem to be in bloom right now.

I have it on good authority that the 2000 is a disaster! No good at all. Don't waste your money.

If this is the case, are you (unconsciously?) constantly shifting focus between front sight and target? You must not do this! You must focus on the front sight only, and accept that the bull is blurred. Wow! I've been guilty of this. I made a deliberate change this week, as per advice, and my score...
