I just finished a project rifle--a mauser k98. I fitted a nice walnut stock to mauser, then decided to go synthetic anyway. My buddy helped me fit a peep sight to replace the rear sight. With his help, I extended the sight radius. I just range tested it at 25 paces. I am wondering what kind of accuracy can I expect. I shot 25 cartridges into a 2 and 1/2 circle.

Ivan, what kind of shape is the barrel in? I suspect you may have to do some bedding tweaking, or something. Look at the internet match results for military rifles, that was just recently completed. You will see some tighter groups at 50 yards. With a good pair of eyes, and a good hold, your rifle should be able to come close to the 2.5" group at 100 yards.
