38-55 B.C. did excellent at 200 yards
« on: March 19, 2009, 08:46:35 AM »
I had a chance to day to try a 200 yard target using the williams peep LP series and a .404 fiber optic red front sight.I set up a target 18Lx12W  and it took 92 clicks for 6 shots in a  pie plate (6") size groupe at that distance.I had to write down on paper the way the sight moves got thrown off a little with way to turn the knobs.
I hope to try the 300 yard set up maybe next week
I now have it set it takes 20 clicks dead on a 50 yards and 24 clicks for the 100 yard target.
I then set up the sight to shoot about 13 " over center at the 100 yard first shot hit low but on paper then a few minor click for dead center .
I forgot to mention from zero it took 91 clicks to hit dead center at 200 yards target from the bench

If you have more than a couple of guns, you'll never remember all that.  What I do is put it all a 3x5 card, plastic laminate it and tuck it under the buttstock cartridge holder.  It's there when I need it for each rifle.  Good shooting.  I'll wager you'll streach it to 300 after a bit.  It's a disease, a sub-virus of Handiholicism.

Enjoy!
