Your not wrong James!

No point in spending like a drunken sailor.

The seller wanted over $1k for it James ..... but it seems it shares the same serial number with several other Mk4's I was able to find on the net.
We renegotiated and I paid $150 including a set of mounts.
Only time will tell if I got a bargain or not.

I bore sighted it in the back yard old school style.

Took it to the range and fired one shot at 25m which showed I was about a 1" high.

Fired two shots at 100m and found I was about 5" high and 1" left...... several clicks later on both turrets and three more shots showed I was 2" high and good to go.

Six shots from bore sighting ...... not too bad even if I do say so myself.

Spent the rest of the afternoon sending slugs downrange from a tricked out AR15 ... .... It got bloody addictive and slightly competitive too after a few shots I can tell you.

Cheers
Pete
