    K98 rear sight scale and actual change in MOA

    Ok so I set out to see if I could figure out the actual MOA change for each rear sight setting.
    I set up my dial indicator and tried my best to get the readings and figure some stuff out. Not sure if I'm on the right track. I also tried to figure out the MOA change based on the best info I could find for ballistics of 8mm ammo the Germans might have used.
    Now does anyone know what the actual MOA change is for the K98icon.?
    From what I understand .005" is apox 1" change at 100 yards

    I really don't know how do this correctly and I am just looking for a rough idea of the changes per graduation mark on the rear sight to help with calculating adjustments for shooting cast.
    I tried posting my video but for what ever reason I cant get any more videos up ?
