    I have an 800 yd Singer sight (off a No 5 rifle) fitted to my AIA carbine.

    Took it to the range last Sunday, was getting 2" groups at 100m range. Ammo was Highland 123 gn soft nose (Privi Partisan cases).

    Surprisingly enough, was still getting useful groups at 300m.

    Ammo is so inexpensive for a CF so considering how much I have just had to have a bolt action that would shoot it.

    Beware of some of the Milsurp ammo around, I found that my AIA does NOT like some of shiny varnished stuff - it will not extract the fired case and a cleaning rod has to be resorted to.
