rear sight height for a 629 44 mag
« on: December 01, 2007, 08:48:02 AM »
i have a 6.5" 629 .44 mag that i shoot 1400fps 240 grainers with that i want to put a rear sight on.  (it has a scope base now)  i'm looking at millet rear sights and the choices are .312, .360, or .410 height.  which one would be best for a 50 yd zero, possibly 25 yd.   or if anyone has a factory or aftermarket rear for sale.

Try Gun parts or S&W direct may be helpful.

  .360 Height should match original.
