Bought one about 2 months ago, frustrating trying to put the right sights on!  Finally found the sight that fits, now the rear sight (end of barrel) is too high, ugh!  Sabatloader sent me a link to a pretty cool looking sight set up.  If you decide to change sights, pm me your phone number and I’ll send the link to you, I haven’t bought it myself so I don’t know if it fits, but sabatloader knows his stuff.

I have a Accura and love it. I wish I could get it to shoot some thing other than Hornady Sst’s though.

290gr Barnes T-EZ with 100gr of BH209 shoots great out of my Optima. I also just put the new Williams globe sight on mine. I’d most likely have a few more really nice Roosevelt bulls on my wall, if I had this years ago  :'(

That’s what I’m looking at, is the sight closest to your eye the ghost ring?

Ive tried Powerbelts and they had horrible groups. I’ve been using 100g of white hots.

That’s a awesome sight! Looks high on the front? What rear setup are you using? I had to make shims for my rear peep in order to hit zero at 100 yards. Without the shims I’m 4” low with the sight adjusted all the way up.
