    .303 iron sights, Sporterized Long Tom.

    So the idea is to sort Dads Long Tom for the lad down south.

    It was plurry wet and slippery up the track, so only had a play at 100yds. I’m happy with the windage but it’s 19” high at 100.

    When it’s drier I’ll go back to 200. The rear sight can’t go any lower, it seems to me I have to raise the front blade which sits in a lateral dovetail.

    I have a Broad Arrow marked .060” front blade, but the dovetail is too small for the dovetail in the ramp.

    I was thinking of building the blade up with Devcon and filing it down to get a 200yd zero. Then measure it with the Vernier and getting it built up with weld.

    POA was lower dot.
