took a savage mk 4 (1942) virtually unfired, almost new condition to the CMPicon games to use in vintage match, had some south african 303 to shoot at 200 yards

problems:

at prone position the stock is so low that i had to rest chin onstock to see thru sights

started off with rear sight at the 200 yard mark, first shot was almost a paper miss at 7 oclock on cardoard almost not even on the target frame. moved to the 400 yard mark and only move the strike up about 6 inches still a full 24" to the left..

had to put rear sight at almost 600 yards to equal the center of black, but still 24 inches to the left..

no windage adjust at all, sight had been drifted somewhat in the past.

had to pick up a imaginary spot on the right side of target to get into blac

not a good day

and previous day i had shot the M! and missed hi shooter by X's
