Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - 50 yard adjustments
Posted: 9/21/2018 10:49:33 PM EDT
If I am shooting at 50 yards, how much will each click of the sight post and drum adjustment move my bullet on the target?  I'm shooting a M16A1 retro build.  55 gr. ammo.  Thanks!

If you have the correct 5 detent front sight post it will move impact roughly 1/2" @ 50m or 1 MOA. The rear will move .53" at 50m, or as the manual says it .7cm (17/64") per 25m of range.

Turn left/right & up/down till your group is where you want it.
