I have an older Mini-30 with the folding leaf adjustable rear peep sight. It's the type with two set screws you loosen to raise and lower the sight. I have always used a scope on it and have been happy with it's accuracy. Today I took it to the range intending on sighting it in with the iron sights. At both 50 and 100 yds, with the rear sight as high as it would go, it still shot low. At 100 yds I had to aim six inches high. I am shooting handloads; 150 gr JSP at around 1950 fps. Ruger states that I have a .308 bore and that is what I am reloading.
Anyone else ever experience this? Any suggestions?
Thanks a heap,
Steve
