Rear sight?

[Iglow]

I was wondering about epoxying a simple rear sight over the chamber of my Stevens 301? I could make it from cardboard first to get the point of impact right then make it from aluminum sheet and fix it in place. I was thinking kinda dual duty and see if benneke slugs would print close. I'd just use the bead for the front sight. Y'all ever seen a setup like that?

If the turkey’s head and neck are in the circular orange ring, the turkey is approximately 30-35 yards away—which is within the kill zone range of most shotguns. This gives a hunter another tool to help gauge the distance of his or her target. The base is made of T-6 aircraft-grade aluminum; the...

That's pretty good but my Stevens is a plain barrel. The Burris item, it costs more than the gun!
