I decided to change the sights on the 44-40. The front sight blades are made by a fellow handgun hunter. The rear is an aftermarket blade with white outline.

With ammo loaded for my Uberti Flattop Target, the first group came in at 3/4". Five shots in one ragged hole and one line (bastard) shot opened it up a bit. Sights and scopes have to suit the shooter.
