Good morning,
Have the loads dialed in on my old Winchester 94 in 38-55. Cuts 2-3" groups @100 with a 265 gas checked boolit and 29gr. of 3031 at 1600fps. It will hold this group very consistently if I give time for the barrel to cool in-between shots. The problem is that this rifle cuts that group almost 16" above the point of aim. ( front sight is to short ) This old rifle has the rear ladder type sight, ( not the buckhorn with the elevation stepped wedge adjustment ) and with the slider down their is no adjustment. This rifle also has a blade type front sight that looks like the elevation adjustment is to file the front blade, front blade is just a pinned insert. Question is their a chart somewhere on line showing changes in point of impact with changes to the front sight blade height ?? This rifle has a 20" barrel, but a chart for longer could get me in the ballpark and I could adjust for zero with a slightly taller sight if needed. Thanks for the help,
Chris
