    We shot a Military Benchrest match today so I will submit 2 targets. The 1943 Mark 4 T shot well today. here is a 100 yard target with scope, the target on the right was the best out of 20 rounds for score. I am posting another Gibbs Rifle target with a different load. This 150 grain fmj shot better than the SMK.

    Cool [b]My first entry for 2012;[/b]

    1944 I.B.M. (AO) M1icon carbine:

    My second entry for 2010;

    First an observation I have made. My front sight is WAY TOO SHORT! When holding on target as shown in (figure 1), at 50 yards POI is about 8” above target. When holding as shown in (figure 2) POI is around 6 o-clock on target. It is very hard to get this sight picture correct, so I decided to get a new taller front sight before I shoot this gun again.

    Did I Misunderstand?

    Before you change a sight post try a target at 200 yards. Make sure your rear sight is as low as it will go. Hold in the conventional manner and check your strike. The picture looks to me as if the rear sight is elevated. Neat art work! Thanks
