MarkII sight questions
Posted: Mon Apr 02, 2012 9:24 pm
I recently picked up a used Mark II with 4.5" tapered barrel with fixed sights. I love it except for the sights. At 50' from a rest, my point of impact is about 5" left and 3" low of center. My questions are:
Can the fixed rear sight be drifted over?
Can I raise the point of impact by filing down the front sight?
Are there aftermarket adjustable sights for the tapered barrel version (the ones I have seen online say they are for the bull barrel)?
It is not drilled/tapped, my other Marks are but I want to shoot this one with iron sights.
Has anyone tried making the front blade thinner?
Our local game is to cut a .22 box in half at 50" in less than 100 shots (it's harder than it sounds, try it), the front post is so wide it covers the target at that distance.
Thanks
