Open sights… perhaps the purest form of shooting ... and now something I’m looking at having a good stab at as I’m a little bored shooting with scopes the size of Jodrell Bank and I’m thinking that open sights, for the ultimate challenge, is the way to go.

What I really want, and this is the bit that will probably raise a few eyebrows, is a rifle that will allow me to shoot anywhere from 10 out to 50, 60 or even if possible 70 meters with open/peep sights, but definitely without a scope.

So, which is the best rifle, which sights and do you have any good tips and pointers that will get me matched up with the best kit.

I’ve been thinking of the Feinwerkbau 300/600’s, but as they are only 6ftlb I’m guessing they just won’t cut the mustard on range, or is there a magical fix that can bring the gun more towards the 12ftlb mark ?

I’d prefer not to go down the PCP route, I want to keep it ‘traditional’ and as its not something I've done a lot of, I need advice, so over to you guys.

Thanks in advance folks.
