Ordinarily you don't want to make the notch deeper, just wider. I file to the bottom of the existing notch and stop.
Perfect, that answers my question.

Yes sir, those old German U-notch and bead sights are usually fine, too fine for my old eyes. A trick I've used on literally all my old German rifles is to take a round needle file and open up the ... |

Thanks Matt for posting, that's an outstanding Sauer. Great thread.
I'm curious if your barrel regulation is like that of my JP Sauer 16 ga./.30-30 combination gun?
With the flip-up sight in ... |

So I've got a bag full of 20 ga. Polywad Spred-R disks that I'll probably never use up. I've also got a tight-choked 16 ga. whose patterns I'd like to open. I think I'll try loading some 16 ga. shel ... |

I have a near-new 16ga Model 24 with IC/Mod barrels. It is a shooter, both barrels shoot where I point it. It is not a handsome gun, for sure - but it handles surprisingly well.
I keep it in the oppo ... |

I had a 20 ga. Stevens 5100 (predecessor to the 311) for a while. I didn't keep it, mainly because the stock was cracked behind the tang (seems common in these guns) and it did not feel much like a 2 ... |

I may have gotten lucky Dave, as the non-adjustable sights have proven to do well with the .30-30 170 gr. Winchesters that were given to me with the gun.
Slugs are another matter though. Foster- ... |

Very nice gun! How is the 16ga barrel choked ?
The barrel is marked MOD and based on my unscientific patterning it appears to shoot as such. |
