I used to have an old lever action Daisy BB gun which would not hit a 2" target @ 20' twice in a row except by pure chance when using the open sights. Funny thing was, I could hit 1" rocks/clods at the same distance 80% or better not using the sights-just shouldering and shooting as I would a shotgun(even taped the sights to show off). Lots of times when I missed, it was either very close or several inches off. Not like I was just hitting around the smaller target, but it was either a hit or way off target.
