Many years ago I purchased a M96 Rifle 6.5x55 Swede made in 1915.
I am experimenting with 170 gr. cast bullets at 1394 fps, however the front sight is for 300 meters and is marked .5 which causes impact to be WAY to high.
The rear sight is as low as it gets.
I would like to know if any eagle eyed members could tell me what height would bring the impact down for 100 meters/ yards.....there is a 1.0 and 1.5 available .
Not sure if this is a metric designation, seems like a 1.5 should be taller.
I appreciate everyone's help!!
