I recently turned 21 (sept. 10) and have always wanted to try my hand at deer hunding with my stainless, 6" barreled, Ruger GP100 .357mag. Im a good shot with a rifle and have very good vision however I can not seem to hit the broad side of a barn with the factory sights on my gp. Can anyone suggest some better sights? I was thinking maybe fiber optic or a target style sight (something more precise). Should I go with better sights or just buy a scope base and throw a red dot or a 2x scope on it?
Secondly, can anyone suggest some ammo to try at the range? I would prefer not to spend an arm and a leg for a box of 20 but I do want a quality hunting round. I do have a single stage lee press and have done some reloading in the past so handloads are also a possibility.
I will be hunting around Des Moines, IA this december if that makes any difference.
thanks,
devin
