I recently mounted a Lyman 66A receiver sight on my M94 30-30. I using the factory bead front sight thats either .310” or .315” (bottom of dovetail to top of bead) tall. I plan to replace the front with a Sourdough partridge but want a little shorter front in order to lower the rear. The rear is kinda high right now. The gap from the top of bolt to the underside of the windage bar is .137”
If I use a .260” tall front thats a difference of .050” from the factory (keeping it simple). Do I just adjust the lower .050” to theoretically keep the same zero I have now?
If Im wrong on this, what height front do I need to lower the rear about .050”-.060”?
