But I wonder. the factory steel sights on the gun are they meant to be aimed dead center or at the 6 'o'clock position? I always line up the sights dead center of the target. However I noticed that if I aim at the base of the plates I know 'em down more consistently. I bought the revolver new several months ago & only had to adjust the windage a click or two.
