Here's the thing.
I don't care what it looks like.
I don't care if it's mismatched parts, or a shaved stock, or a cut barrel, or any of that.
I care that it goes bang, and hits what I want it to hit.
It goes bang, but it don't hit what I want it to hit.
Anyway, I went to a sight correction calculator:
If I want to bull at 50 yards, and I'm 3" low, with a 16.25" sight radius, it looks like this:
3" low, 1800" to target, 16.35" sight radius = .027" front sight adj.
SO. . .
if I was able to make a 1.5mm (.059") front sight adjustment, that (ballparked) would take me from -3.0 and put me at +3.55" at 50 yards. assuming the 165gr/2200fps calculations above.
Which, ballparked again, should give me a zero in the 200-225 yard range if my math doesn't totally suck.
If I'm even remotely close to these theoretical numbers, it will at least be a gun I can work with, versus the dirt shooter I first took to the range.
