HiViz Birdbuster magnetics sights with litepipes

[docent]

Purchased these HiViz litepipes magnetics sights for my Browning. I have a bead at the end of the barrel.
Do you remove the bead to install these magnetics sights?

Maybe a Picture?

Leave the bead in place and place the magnetic sight right behind it.
The magnetic sight will possibly slide off the end of the barrel over time if it does not have something to stop against.
If the bead is visible behind the fiber optic, you could cut most of the bead off, but leave the base of the bead for the magnetic sight to stop against.

Hmmm. I use a black sharpie on my bead so it doesn't catch my eye when I'm shooting something flying through the air.

If you're shooting clays or hunting birds:

1) Perfect your gun mount (if you haven't) - it needs to be consistent
2) Focus on the target, not the bead.

Thanks for the U-Tube links. It explains the line up from center bead to end of barrel.

Pattern your gun and let me know how it shoots.

Once you've perfected your mount you shouldn't even see the beads and your focus should be entirely on the target.
