    What to look for when using peep sights?

    Hello all, I recently put a rear peep on my Marlin 336 for improved accuracy. After putting a needed taller front sight, I think I have ran into a another problem. What exactly I am looking for in the front sight. Do I look past the peep and just look for the post or am I trying to visualize...
