Sighting my "T" rifle

[Norton1]

I had a Mk I scope a few years ago and it was pure junk. Even had Wheatley work on it to no avail. I found a MK II repop this year and thought I'd give it a go. It was a 60 round piece of work, I can't imagine the language used my armorers and shooters to get this scope sighted in during rain or even a bit of wind.

At 25 yards it was 2 clicks left so I adjusted for that and then the magic three handed monster to get it to reset where I wanted it to. I learned a bunch about how tight and how loose to have things and how to tell if it was re tightened correctly. Bu there it was. Then out to 100 yards. It shot just a bit low (ha ha ha). But once again 3 shot groups and adjusted up until it was just a click from where it should be. And just a hair right.

That adjustment put it within a 1/2 inch of a tiny white dot on a 3 inch high by 5 inch wide target. At 100 yards it will hit a dime fairly consistently. I am very happy with this setup. The scope took all of the shots without changing zero and stood up to my bungling around with it. I don't have a place where I can shoot over 100 yards at present by am going to look into the local NRA weekly shoots. They shoot from 200 to 600 yards depending on the week. I think it will do fine.

Be well,
Steve

This pic is sideways but is the last shot I made. The one below it is the previous shot that I did the final adjustment from.
