About ten years ago I had a Model 158 3030 topper probably from the 70's, sold it to a buddy, just traded some firewood to get it back. I have shot many deer with various rifles, compound bows [about 60 deer] but now have only longbows, recurves, Love the topper. The sights are crude, flat blade front, standard rear, soI took it to a gunsmith the other day, he is putting on a fine gold bead and a williams peep sight. Figure tht would work good in the snowy vt woods. I am also sanding the stock, will stain it dark then put on a bunch of tung oil. Anyone hunt deer with these guns? what can you guys tell me about the accyuracy, loads to use [170grn core lokts are what I have] durabbility, luck with peeps etc on these rifles? Always thought they were junk until i saw this sight, now i have single shot disease!
