I have Ashley same plain sights. I want to zero using the santos method (at 50 yrds). Right now the front sight is cranked down as far as it will go - this zeros the weapon at 25 meters.
When zeroed at 25 meters, I turn the rear sight from "z" to "4" and now I am on at 50 yrds.
This is not the same as being zeroed at 50 yrds - right?
Secondly, I believe that since the rounds are striking very high at 100 yrds (when zeroed at 25 meters)
I need to lower the front sight to change the zero from 25 meters to 50 yrds - correct?
Assuming that this is correct, and given that the Ashley front sight will not turn down any lower, what should I do?
A. Is there a way to recalibrate the rear to accomplish a 50 yrd zero?
B. Should I remove the front sight, and trim a small amount of the spring under the front sight? This should allow the front sight to come down low enough to zero at 50 yrds - correct?
Thank you for your help in advance.
