    Not sure what diameter the 10 has on that target, but everything in the 8 with most in the 9-10 is about as good as it gets with as-issued iron sights. Looks like the foresight blade could be drifted a touch to the right, as the grouping is about 1 MOA right.

    Assuming that the spread is just PWF, you could try gluing* a ring to the backsight to make the hole a bit smaller (about 1/16"). That improves the vision for us "senior" shooters!

    *Use Pattex or a similar adhesive, so it's a reversible alteration, but allows you to test the rifle better!
