It's great, you may want to change the front sight tho, several of us use the .404" tall 17A sight instead, mine hits 1½" high at 100yds with the sight at the bottom shooting 405gr trapdoor loads, Bernie(dodd3) has shot his to 600yds with the same sight setup shooting 500gr cast  trapdoor loads. You can also order a knobbed screw from Brownell's or Williams to replace the elevation lock screw so you don't need a screwdriver.

The factory WGRS will do that for ya, you may still have to change the front sight tho, mine hit 6" low at 50yds with the WGRS all the way to the top! ::) If you're not needing to change elevations for longer ranges, just use the WGRS.  But I'd shoot it and find out, you can swap apertures out on the WGRS or use it as a Ghost ring without the aperture or buy the Ghost ring aperture for it. The Marbles #30XL can be used to if you don't care for the WGRS, see Peep and Firesights in the FAQs.

The lock screw is listed in the Long Rang Sights for the BC/Target link or in one of the several links that are in that thread in the FAQs.
