Nice job Bill and Randy. I dont care for scoped levers either but there are quite a few people who have done it. I’ve gotten more use to it. Reflex sights on levers don’t bother me anymore. I gotta believe if they were available in the old days they would have been used.
Don't let the old man in

Vaquero. Good shooting! Especially so when I look at your load. That buttplate must have been backing away from the bullet at a lively pace! :shock: :lol:

I think I'm with the group opinion that the aesthetics of a lever gun are not improved by the addition of a scope or dot sight.
But that said, I also think that, at least for me, the resulting improvement in my ability to put holes much closer together on the targets outweighs my thoughts on how it looks.

And that is some great shooting Vaquero!
