32 SIGHT ADJUSTMENT Shooting to determine the setting of the elevation slide (aperture) should be done from a bench rest and over a measured distance. The rear sight is adjustable for both windage and elevation. Lateral (windage) adjustment is made by loosening the Rear Sight Windage Lock Screw (with the hex-head wrench provided with the rifle) until the sight base requires finger pressure to be moved. (See illustration below). Move the sight in the direction you wish to move the point of impact. Before moving the sight, pencil mark an index line on the sight base and on the receiver so that the amount of sight movement can be detected. After desired positioning of the sight base has been achieved, tighten the lock screw firmly. 11 22 WINDAGE ADJUSTMENT:To move the bullet impact point to the left, move the rear sight base to the left. To move the bullet impact point to the right , move the rear sight base to the right. Be sur e to retighten lock screw after adjustment. To Move Impact To Right Move Sight Right To Move Impact To Left, Move Sight Left
33 SUGGESTED SIGHT PICTURE The front sight is aligned in the center of the rear sight aperture (“peep”) and the target (bullseye) is positioned to appear as if it is sitting on top of the front sight. ELEVATION ADJUSTMENT:To move the bullet impact point upor down, move the elevation slide (the “peep”) by loosening both its screws (using a small screwdriver with a blade tip that exactlyfits the screw-head) only slightly so the slide doesn’t move too freely. Move the slide in the direction you want the point of impact of the bullet to move. When the slide is positioned at the desired height, carefully retighten both screws. To Move Impact Up, Raise SightTo Move Impact Down, Lower Sight
