Henry RAC recommends that after you read and understand this manual, you go to the range and fire different ammunition which is appropriate to the caliber of your firearm. Once you find the ammunition which functions best, keep using it. Especially when cutting-edge reliability and accuracy are vital to you. When sighting your rifle, shoot a group to determine point of impact on the target.

sight base. To help you determine how far you have moved the sight, right or left, a soft pencil can be used. The front edge of the rear sight base comes to a point where it rests on the barrel. At the point of the sight base, lightly make a small mark with the pencil and carry it straight down to make a small adjoining mark on the barrel. This will show you how far to the right or left you have moved the sight base.
