I just bought a Henry .45-70 .
The first firearm in my life. I'm 52 and live in British Columbia. Here we have heavy brush/woods and wanted a gun that covers all my bases. Missing 411 cases is another motivator.
I think I want a peep sight. If I ever had to defend myself it would be 100 yards or less.
🇨🇦👍
Amazing results. I'm retired and I watch TH-cam gun videos all day long. This guy is the best shot on the internet. No, it's not 22plinkster. Great video, and a great gun site, AND the best music on the internet. I'm in Texas, and we all originally came from Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Missouri, and that music just says “Home” to us. Good job, Buffalo.
That view down the barrel changing focus from the front sight to the rear sight made the whole video worth it. Nice shooting, four in the bullseye and I'd call the other one an honest flyer. I just ordered one of these for my Marlin because peep sights are excellent and the RPP design looks fantastic on these guns. You showed me I definitely spent good money.
The 'shroud' around the aperture looks great for protection of the aperture, especially when rifle is slinging around the woods.
I agree!
It’s a pleasure to watch a shooter as talented as you are, and who knows what he’s talking about.
Looks like a fantastic sight. I like the way it adjusts and the wings to protect it. I’m gonna have to pick one up.
It's good to have options and this is certainly a nice option.
I love lever rifles!!! The old west. And thank you for the video. You dialed that peep sight in beautifully 👍👍
😁 Ha-- Kentucky Windage! Man, I love this channel... I'm an Arizonan, and I had the memorable pleasure of riding through Kentucky on my way back home in 2015. People were so kind and generous and engaging, just happy to meet a visitor... and the land was exceptionally gorgeous. I just loved it... one of the key standouts of my 17 state cross-country roundtrip. For what it's worth, too... I'm not a white guy 😆 🇺🇸
Great to hear your not a white guy and was RESPECTED buy all those you met ! 👍
Well you just sold me on this sight. Will pick one up.
Testimony to Henry rifles, my 44 shoots about the same group, what a great rifle, good shooting Buffalo and good video, now i want a sight like that!
Once apon a time. There was a man named Buffalo and he was a great shot. So good that he never missed! EVER!! True story! :-)
Hahaha! I need to meet that fella because I miss plenty!
Thanks Buffalo. I love your channel . . . and didn't know about the RPP sight. Awesome!
I'm glad you enjoy the videos. Thank you for the comment!
I have aperture sights on all my lever guns (Skinner) . Never heard of this company before seeing your video.... thanks... 👍
The Brass is a nice touch. Great video. Thank you.
Thanks!
Really nice sight. Great video, again!
Love the awesome quality content you are putting out sir! Great stuff! Hope you and yours have a Merry CHRISTmas!
Hey thank you for that! I appreciate it and Merry Christmas to you and yours!
You’re shooting is most impressive! I’m new to the Henry camp and I’m very impressed with their lever actions.
A fine and very practical review, thanks Buffalo!
One the best gun channels on TH-cam. Good work
Thank you for that!
I'll agree! I love it when a new Buffalo video pops up!
The best!
Looks to me like you need a little taller front sight
Ranger triggers for Marlins are great. I've got their trigger and loading gate on my 336. Excellent company.
Congratulations on your successful troubleshooting efforts and excellent groups. I just found your channel. Greetings from East Texas.
Great video Buffalo and very well explained.I've purchased a couple of parts from Range Point.Good to work with and fast shipping.Thanks for the video.
Not only did you demonstrate how well these sights work, you also showed how well a Henry rifle will shoot and the quality of Federal ammunition. Considering that your rest is not very stable compared to an actual benchrest set up, I think that you shot incredibly well. Overall, a well done video.
"dang" is right. That was some shooting sir!
Thanks!
Great shooting! I’m envious! From Canada 🇨🇦
In 2018 i bought a Ranger Point Precision peep sight for my Henry Brass 45/70. To make it work I have to adjust the peep sight all the way over to the right and use locktite to secure the windage screw that’s almost backed all the way out of the hole. I was not happy with that. So At the suggestion of Ranger Point Precision customer service. I took it to a local Gun Smith and they couldn’t make it work with the factory front sight, Suggesting that I go with Skinner Sights. I’ve kept the Ranger Point Precision peep sight on my Henry 45/70 and so far it still works just fine for my tired old eyes.
Very nicely done high quality video and some mighty fine shooting! I have used both Williams and Skinner sights and like them. However, I will go with RPP for my newly acquired Marlin. Thanks for a great review.
I like the look of the brass. I'll have to look into these for some of my Henry's. Thanks for sharing!
Those sights look AWESOME, and a lot more rugged. Protected vs the buckhorn,. Wow. You got that Dial IN PREFECT
Thanks for the info on reversing the RPP peep. Took me from being 2 plus inches high to on the mark after reversing. My Henry looks great with the brass peep and taller brass front blade. Replaced factory blade to a taller sight . RPP does tell Henry owners about the front sight needed to be taller. Your suggestion idea completed the new peep.
Great shooting sir, and beautiful rifle!!!
Good shooting.
Something that I built years ago that worked well for me is a semi portable 3 legged table for sight in shooting. I had an old scrap on treated plywood about 2’ x 3’. Braced the legs well. It is light enough to carry around, and stable enough to make use of sand bags. Or Caldwells rest. Can shoot lefties as well as right hand just move the chair to the otherside.
Love that.327, goes with my Ruger. And now you have wind while you are trying to zero. Tight group.
Great great video. Thanks for doing these
Another great video. Thanks.
Great video, Buffalo! In today's world, it seems like everyone needs some sort of "optic", red dot, laser or high power variable scope. No one seems to remember the utility and value of a good peep sight. They are inexpensive (compared to optics) light, unobtrusive and way accurate enough for hunting at close to moderate ranges. Thanks for reminding us, and for covering the things that all the other channels forget about.
Peep sights belong on lever guns. I was fortunate enough to inherit several nice Winchester lever guns and added many others to my collection over the years. NONE have scopes. (cringe!) If there is anything besides the factory open sights on any of my lever guns, it is a peep sight. Even my Savage 99 has a peep sight. I have always considered a lever gun to be handy, slim trim, easy to carry rifle best for moderate ranges and for that, there is nothing better than a large diameter peep sight or a (ghost ring). Attaching a scope to one always seemed to be some sort of betrayal of a trust.
Hey I agree with you, especially about the scope on a lever gun statement. It not only doesn't look right but taking a nimble handling, natural pointing lever gun and putting a base, rings and scope on it kills all that.
@Evocati I hunted for forty years on our family's own private property in a state that allowed us to kill 5 deer a year using ANY centerfire cartridge. I killed more than 100 deer in my lifetime. Including one I dropped dead in its tracks with an M-1 carbine (peep sight) while I was out feeding cattle and another I dropped dead with a .22 Hornet from an old Savage Model 340 with peep sight while fixing fences. Both head shots under 50 yards. Those aren't my deer rifles of choice, they were "truck guns" used on targets of opportunity, but I knew my ability within that range. I had killed plenty of coyotes and jackrabbits with those two rifles, I knew my limitations.
Add in the deer killed by my four brothers, father, grandfather and 2 sons and there were many hundreds of deer killed. We NEVER lost one due to a peep sight. EVER.
Know your limitations and stick to them. Within the range of a lever gun/cartridges a peep sight is a perfectly adequate, humane and viable option.
That said...if YOU are unable to shoot well with a peep sight, by all means, use something else.
Dang buddy your video quality with music is outstanding. That sight is sweet on that Henry. Showing a buddy at work he just ordered a Henry Golden boy. You explain the apertures perfectly. Thanks
I like the .327 Federal Mag and I have a Ruger single action. Now I need another Henry with that peep sight.
Excellent videos Buffalo !!! Jack
I like brass. It really brings out the aesthetics of the gun. Very fine looking weapon. Thank you for the video.
Thanks and I agree!
.327 Federal Magnum! Superb content, rifle, ammo, caliber and marksmanship, Sir!
My Buffalo your timing couldn’t have been any better on this video. My dad just got me a Henry Steel 45-70 and you upload this video of these peep sights. I’m gonna get me a set. Probably green rear and red front.
I am not sure if they offer them for the 45-70 or not. I know they make them for the Big Boys but those are on different receivers and I don't think they are tapped the same but I might be wrong on that. It would be worth checking though!
Very very good video,I might consider one of those sights
I love your videos brotha, keep'm coming. 👍
Great video Buffalo! I just recently found your channel and it's awesome. Your 870 Wingmaster video may have just persuaded me into purchasing one for myself lol.
Thank you! Glad that you are enjoying the channel! Those 870 Wingmasters are great shotguns!
One flyer with the wind blowing a gale… ahh excellent.
I had not considered a Henry or Marlin lever gun before.
NOw it’s on top of my list.
This will compliment my three 327s and my two 32 H&R revolvers….
Excellent video, great delivery thanks
AWSOME shooting 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you!
Fine shooting as always Buffalo.
Thank you!
Gorgeous gun !
Good work! Thanks for the video.
The wind wasn't a problem, very good shooting, good job on editing.
Seriously just watched the weather go from misty rain, to cold in a toboggan, and windy in a t-shirt.
Guess if you don't like the weather now, wait an hour or two!
Great video, btw!
Yeah it's been a crazy weather week and I captured it all in one video....LOL That's one thing about Kentucky, if you have to pick back up on a video the next day you're gonna lose continuity because the weather will be vastly different!
@@buffalosoutdoors It added another very interesting layer to the video. I really liked it.
Great video. Thanks for pointing out RPP.
Glad you liked it!
Great stuff Buffalo, thank you for making the videos
You're very welcome. I really appreciate that comment!
@@buffalosoutdoors You are welcome indeed, I have been watching your vids for a couple of years now and enjoy your calm factual and honest appreciation of guns that I haven't bought yet. I am from the UK and can buy shotguns and rifles but not pistols. Particularly interested in the lever guns at the moment and hoping next year to purchase one ..
@@paoemantega8793 I really like the lever guns and shotguns so they will always be featured on my channel. Those are the guns I grew up around. My dad has never owned a hand gun that I know of but started us out early on an old single shot shotgun. I have come to love and appreciate handguns but levers will always have a place in my heart and on my channel.
Thank you for misssing shot number 2. I know you did that so I wouldn't hide in the shed crying like a girl because of my sorry shooting ability again.
Thanks for the video. I just ordered mine from Ranger...Again thanks...
You did a good job on wind noise reduction , wasn' bad at all. Thanks for the video and Merry Christmas!
Thank you. I thought it would be worse! That wind was terrible.
Looks way better than before! Keep up that good work, greetings from Germany!
Thank you!
Great Video and awesome Shooting!Just bought a Henry Big Boy Case Hardened 44 magnum last week.Cant wait to shoot it have never owned a Henry.Good filming and the Wind was not bad on the Video.Enjoyed your Videos!!
Great content in your video, and great taste in your firearms. Really nice looking rifle.
Thank you!
Well Buffalo you’re younger than i am but we’ve been on the same wavelength concerning peep sights on lever guns sounds like for a long while. Who says North & South can’t get along?!? Signed; Damn Yankee
HA! I guess we just had a treaty moment! ;)
A yankee is someone from the north that comes down to the south...a damn yankee is one that will not go home 😃. Regards from Deep East Texas.
I love all my Henrys... have 8 of them in various calibers
Your doing a great job Keep them videos coming......
great post and great shooting thank you for sharing
You're very welcome! I appreciate the comment!
Wow! Great group on the windy day.
That has to be one of the best explanations of any thing I’ve seen on the tube
Thank you I think I’ll try this peep instead of skinners like I have on the rest of my henrys
I have a Skinner peep on a Marlin 1894CB .32H&R that RPP reamed and tuned to .327 Federal about three years ago (couldn't wait for Henry). Along with a Single Seven, a guy is pretty well set for most anything out here in the high desert. RPP does great work. My Marlin now equals/exceeds the Henry for slickness. Two of my favorites for every day use. Love that .327.PS: Nice shootin'.
I always thought it was skinner sights or nothing. Nice to know there is another option. Thanks, Buffalo.
Skinner is the most well known and I do love their sights but I was wanting to try something different this time around and just happened to find these in my search. Like you said I like options and competition between companies leads to better products for us!
I have skinner sights on a couple rifles,sometimes they’re hard to sight in with their adjustments system.
Those Skinners are ok. Nice and low/streamlined somewhat. They're inferior to the older Lyman 66 sights if you really plan to do any serious shooting.
Thanks Buffalo.
You're very welcome!
I think I'd like a peepsight on my Henry too. Never knew I had the option before. I thank you sir!
Good shootin....nice group....happy holidays buddy
Thank you and I hope you and your family have a great Christmas!
Henry sure does make a beautiful rifle.
They really do. Thanks for the comment.
Just wanted to say thanks for the video: I didn't know about RP until today thanks to you. BTW I think this video was an "A" for video and music and overall content. Nicely done.
Great video
Great stuff
Clearly presented video - thankyou! Also very nice shooting partner 👍👍👍
Good video. Man, that is some good shooting. I also use peeps on my lever guns and it’s surprising how accurate they can be.
Well done fella.
going to check them out, thx.
They seem like a quality outfit.
Aperture sights can be great , on AR I can hit 8 inch plate at 300 every shot off bags.that little round is a model of efficiency.
Nice job getting that sight adjusted by flipping the knob around....Sweet sight....Good stuff...
Thanks Scott. It only dawned on me to try that after I had already posted that Patreon only video.
@@buffalosoutdoors Nice job with that good ole thinking cap....You are one savvy man....Good stuff...
Ranger Point Precision is awesome
I have an RPP peep sight on my Henry 45-70. It’s a great piece of gear.
Very cool sight. I can see one in my near future being that I can't see the stock sights any more. Looks like just the ticket for my Winchester .45 colt carbine. Thanks for the tip and the vid.
I don't know what all models they make these for but it wouldn't hurt to look and even shoot an email and ask if you don't see what you need. If they see a market for it they just may make it.
Awesome 👍
That's as good as I've ever done , that was a long time ago . I'll check Ranger Precision Products out ! That's Buff for Shure
Looks great.
Like your videos. Enjoyed
Outstanding !! I had watched another installation video and discussion about front sight being to short was not discussed and rear sight elevation was not discussed. This video solved both questions I had. Excellent. I must have missed the part about what caliber you were shooting. Ammo looked like .357?
I've Skinner sights sightes for a long time. It's nice to see you give the .327 a workout.
I love Skinners. I've got them on several of my lever guns.
Cool stuff! and nice shootin as always. And the speed that you can turn a screw driver is impressive ;-)
Thank you! It took me years to learn how to handle a screwdriver like that! ;)
Those are very nice sights
We all have flyers somedays... Nice group by the way!
Well done!
🖖🏻🇫🇷😎🇫🇷🤪🇫🇷🖖🏻
Got a new subscriber here, from France!
That gun looks great with those sights
It certainly does..Pretty Classy in my eyes.
Thank you! I think so too!
wow that's a nice looking sight damn nice shooting!
Brass is spot on for this riffle. Good pick!
🖖🏻🇫🇷😎🇫🇷🤪🇫🇷🖖🏻
Sir, that is some damn fine shooting, I must say.
Now I am alot older now some 50 plus years from my army infantry days when I had great eye sight as an expert riflemen.
I must say, that anyone would be proud and that was some fine shooting, especially for that pistol caliber carbine with iron sights. Well done sir.
I to have Skinner peep sights on both my Henry small game 22 LR and my Henry caliber 45 Colt carbine. Like you I did have to go to a higher .625" Skinner partridge blade front sight for that 45 Colt carbine.
The factory front sights were fine on the buckhorn sights but off 2.5" at 25 yards and plus 3.5" high at 50 yards with the Skinner peep sights. It gave me an approximate 100 yard zero, with the rear peep sights screwed all the way down with no way to adjust for a closer 50 yard zero, hence the new taller front sight.
Beautiful gun
Boy am I tired of rain and mud. I'm sure ill miss it around August but if I gotta keep feeding hay in this slop......whoooo boy. Stay out of the high water and NICE group.
wow. you are one heck of a shot Buffalo.
