Popped the cherry...

[amadeus76]

Went to the range yesterday with about 5 new rifles I haven’t had the chance to shoot yet including my new No4 Mk2. I didn’t take a lot of ammo out for it, just enough to try and get a rough zero and see if it could shoot boat tails or if I needed to stick with flat base projectiles... It’ll take boat tails without issue so that’s good. I’m not really concerned with accuracy right now until I get a few hundred rounds thru the barrel, but I will say it seems to group very well. I was only zeroing at 25 yards and I know that’s a poor distance to gauge accuracy, but each 5 shot group was very tight. Unfortunately I was shooting 3” low using a ladder zero target. Unfortunately after going thru the math equation to figure out which sight I need it splits the difference evenly between a .045 and .030 front sight (the equation says I need a .037 front sight). I have a spare .045, so I’ll swap them out and see what I get.

Anyway, I’m pleased overall with the rifle...
