Congrats. As for the peep site. GET ONE. You will get just as good of accuracy and you will be able to see so much more. Think of it this way. Take a piece of paper with a notch cut in the top of it and hold it at arms length and try and look over it. Now take at different piece of paper and put a small hole in it and hold it up to your eye. You will notice that you will be able to see so much more threw the hole in the paper then looking over the top of the other one. I'm telling you, you have to get a peep site for it. You will be amazed at how much better you can see down range. Especially on longer shots. Those rear sites just cover way to much.  :twocents:
It's not the size of the trophy that make's it a trophy.

You may just be one person in this world. But you may be the world to just one person.

I'm on the Black Diamond bandwagon!! I'm totally excited for something new this season. I can't shoot any gun to save my life but for some reason I could always shoot slugs fairly well out of my 870. Hopefully this will be somewhat similar. So to peep or not to peep?
It is hard to follow one great vision in a world of darkness and of many changing shadows. Among these shadows men get lost.

I have a knight bighorn, my buddy has the TC black diamond XR and his gun out shoots mine.  He is using 110 grains 777 and the bullets are called Cheap Shots can't remember the bullet weight.  His gun is lethal at 200 yards and he has a peep sight.  Might want to give that combo a chance just for fun.  That bullet powder combo wasn't very good in the bighorn though.
