Hah =P.
I did check with hornady's online ballistic calculator. I ran 220 grain with bc of .294 at 2000 fps and it hits just about 6 inches high at 50 yards with a 300 zero. That's probably what it's zero is supposed to be. Looks like it will be even higher at 100 yards as its still climbing at that point. I am changing a front sight on an M1903 so maybe i can repurpose the old sight blade somehow.
I was noticing the newer 1901 or something krag rear sights were upgraded with a peep. I wonder if I can get a 1903 part from that sight and see if it will fit and then use the peep. Just thinking outloud. It wouldn't be anything permanent.
