I have a RRA 20" Standard A2 with floated barrel. With the original sights, off a solid rest, on a good day I can put put 5 shots of match ammo into about an inch at 100 yards. I normally don't shoot past 200 yards as that is the limit of my shooting range.
I have other RRAs with the same barrel and which have optics that shoot condiderably better so I am sure the limitation there is my eye sight, not the gun. I will be 43 in a couple days if that matters, and I don't wear glasses though I don't focus up close to well anymore. Other than close focus, I don't have any eye issues that I am aware of. I don't shoot matches but I figured you guys would be the ones to ask.... I am thinking about the sights below and was hoping for some input before spending the money. Are they likely to allow a measurable improvement in group size? Any reason I wouldn't want them or may prefer something else? Thoughts on which aperature size to select?

| The different size posts and apertures of the NM sights will shrink groups a little, but proper sight alinement as well as consistant stock placement will have a more dramatic effect on shrniking the group. The biggest gain in NM sights is the finer adjustment to give a good zero. Get the 1/4 x 1/4 minute version. Try the .040 rear or larger since you are in your 40's. Front post widths are more of a personal preference. |
