New k95 order
Hey guys just about to put an order in this week for a new k95 and i was going to get it without sights but now thinking i may get it with them my question is does the front sight create too much of a distraction on low power through your scopes? I’m looking at a z6i 2-12x50 at this stage. Cal will be 7x65r
Cheers Kane

Re: New k95 order
i have them on my 7x65r and dont notice them in the scope, you can see them if you are looking for them but dosnt bother me.
When ordering check and double check everything on the order, ie if you want a recoil pad etc, make sure its listed...

I have Leupold vx6 2-12x42 in my K95 and I can’t remember the sights being an issue. Having said that most of my shots have been at higher power.
Great choice of caliber, I also have a 7x65R.

I do notice it on on 2.4-12x56 kahles scope, but I find it helps me get the right cheek alignment by centring the sight with the scope.

I have a 1.7-10 Z6 on my K95 (7x65R) with open sights. You can make out the front sight on the lowest power but if shooting at game I never see it.

Re: New k95 order
I use 2-7x36 Kahles scopes, it can be seen at the lower power but it's definitely not an issue.
I have had to use the open sights in an emergency and I'm glad I had them because of that.

I'm soft and I don't care.

Get a z8i 1.7-13.3x42 railmount, perfect size for the 7x65r

For your sake mate I hope you get yours well before me.
That’s the one I’m looking at at the moment. I’ve got the 2-16 on my r8 and love it
