hey guys, its been troubling me lately that my groups aren't what i'd like them to be. i'm still figuring that the error is all me and i want to fix it so i had a few questions.
i havent really been able to bench rest it, so its been mostly standing at indoor ranges out to 20 yards or so, and honestly i still miss the 7 inch circle enough to get bothered.
when alinging the rear and front iron sights, do you put the bead right in the center, so that it floats perfectly between the two flared out irons? or you do keep the front sight bead flush with the bottom of the rear irons?
a while back i was able to shoot out to 100 yards and i always here some of the older guys saying how you should be competent with irons out to 100 easy, and i'll be darned if i can put more than 3 or 4 holes into that 12" target at 100 yards.
since i havn't been able to bench rest it i really dont know if the rifle itself shoots high or is improperly sighted in (i bought it used, supposedly unfired) and so far havn't fussed with the elevation at all.
