Title: Six O clock??
Post by: ohiomossyoak on April 09, 2014, 04:39:16 AM
Just curious is you folks who have adjustable rifle/iron type sights(ring or notch rear an front blade) sight in for a Six O'clock hold or similar.Im sighting in my first time for turkey an it seems my sights block out on smaller targets.Im thinking of zeroing my sights so my POA is just under where my POI will be..Heck may start doing that for all my guns with this type of sighting system..

I shoot Williams Sluggers and my POA is the waddles, POI is a touch higher.  I like holding on the waddles so I can follow the bird if he is moving.   So it is the 6 o'clock hold you are talking about.


The wind pushed this one a shade but you can see how I set mine.  This was my old 835.

My POA is the waddles.....POI is higher. I posted a picture on Sunday of a pattern I had shot that day that shows it.
