I am 63 now, and have not shot a rifle much in the past 30 years. But, I have been gearing up for an Elk hunt here in New Mexico for some time now (getting divorced freed me up so much!). I have a 7mm Rem. with a scope, but I recently acquired an 1886 Winchester Deluxe in 33 WCF. Just a spectacular gun... made in 1906, a takedown, and in superb shape... just the rifle for Elk in the woodlands up around my draw.. Near Cuba, New Mexico.
I took the rifle out in the back yard to sight it in and found that I have a problem! I am having a tough time focusing on the front site. I can see fine... and see the target. But, putting the target and the front site down in the bottom of the channel together is difficult for me. Am I alone with this, or is this the result of age getting to the eyes? It is hell getting old. Lee
