The finishing touches are finally here. I installed a Marbles tang sight on the resurrected '06 Winchester.
It now has new wood, a new re lined barrel, a few new parts and many hours of cleaning etc. The tang sight was purchased for it's aperture function with older eyes (helps to focus on front sight & target) Thus far I'm able to get some fairly good groups at 25 yards. (an Anschutz it is not) with flawless function and a fairly good trigger.
But mainly it is a great fun rifle to shoot. It's only disappointment is that the tube magazine only holds 10 rounds which run out too fast.
