I've recently acquired a Marlin 336 (30-30) and 1894 (.44) and I don't plan on scoping them. Both guns are deadly at 50 yds. -- when I can see the @#$% front post sight against a dark target. I'm thinking about ordering a Williams fiber set to experiment with. The front post of my 1894 is hooded, and I'd prefer to leave it way. Does the fiber on the front sight need to be exposed -- to sunlight -- in order to work? (I've also seen a picture of a hood with a hole in top; wonder if it is to allow sunlight to hit the fiber?) Thanks.
