BF questions

Post by JSH »

I am really considering up grading my FP and BB P guns, going to one gun. I think I want to go to one gun rather than my TC and a BF . Go to a new BF
Here are my questions.
A full length rib on 10" BF, then a clamp on high rise. This would allow me to shoot FP P and PAS, and BB P S and UAS. All with one gun. One lot of brass loaded with different bullets and loads for FP and BB. FYI, KL shows nothing of a full length sight rib on his sight?? I swear he made them?
Only down fall I can think of if it breaks I am out of what ever is left to shoot? I usualy bring a spare of sorts for just that reason any way.

Any and all input welcomed.

Do you play golf with only 1 club??? :-?

1/2 the fun of this sport is getting all the clubs :))

Check and see how much rib is needed to mount a high rise on the rib that comes on the BF. You may be fine with the half rib. Otherwise, you might have to go with regular rings. Just my 2 cents.

I have seen this done before. The shooter done it with a short ribbed setup. But, to the best of my recollection he didn't use a mid-rise or hi-rise mount for his standing guns. His was a 30-20 and he also used different loads for each discipline. I once thought about doing the same thing with a TC in .357 magnum.
