I am still learning the pros and cons of this peep on my Tula '51.

Installation was no problem but the allen screw that goes in to tighten against the cross bolt must have Blue Loctite and really be tight, as it shot loose after ony 15 shots after the first Loctite addition.

More important, this past week, at 60 yds in the bush in shade, after 12-15 shots, in slow groups of 3, I started to get elevation problems. I thought at first that it was the 4 small bolts coming loose. Worse, it was the cross bolt coming loose!:eek:. I deduced that this bolt needs a lock washer under the head and have installed one. So far, I've not had a chance to try it again.

As for the TS replacement front post, which is thinner than the original, I found last week that in the shade, it was too thin to see clearly.

Perhaps, what I need up front is a florescent post? I also intend to send the trigger assembly away for tuning.

The saga continues...
