SIGHT ADJUSTMENT
(For Standard Rifles Equipped With Open Sights)
The folding leaf rear sight is adjustable for elevation. The slide must be moved
one graduation to change the point of impact by approximately one inch at 25
yards. Shooting to determine the slide setting for ‘zero’ at a particular distance
should be done from a bench rest and over a measured distance. Use only a small
screwdriver with a blade tip that exactly fits the screw-head. Loosen the screws
only slightly so the slide doesn’t move too freely. Move the slide in the direction
you want the point of impact of the bullet to move. When the slide is positioned
at the desired height, carefully tighten both screws.
Lateral (windage) adjustment is made by “drifting’ the sight base in its slot. Place
a short brass rod against the sight base (and only the base) and tap the sight in
the direction you wish to move the point of impact.
