Iron Sights Accuracy...

[amadeus76]

So it goes without saying that we all shoot better scoped vs not. That said, I’m curious what the consensus is for accuracy with iron sights?

I took one of my Lee Enfield No.4’s out yesterday with a Fulton of Bisley ‘no drill’ mount and got 1 MOA average over four 5 shot groups at 100 yards. I then took the mount off and shot it again with irons and got 3.5 MOA average at 100 yards. It isn’t unexpected that my groups would open up with irons (especially with my eyes aging), but with most of my rifles not being set up for scopes I’m curious what people consider good accuracy with iron sights?
