Got great grandfather's 99 in 303 from my dad. Put together some reloads for them and it's off the target high at 100 yds, at least 12". Got my first buck with this 35 years ago and find myslef wanting to hunt with it again. I remember it being high with winchester silvertips, but not this high. Rear sight is as low as it goes. Front is fixed height in dovetail. What have any of you done to remedy this? Taller front sight I presume. Any off the shelf fixes?
I plan to put rear sight in its middle position and shoot at 50 yards. I will then calc what I need to raise the front sight.
Thanks
