RE: results after moving front sight
Great! Now you cam proof your sights for longer range by shooting at 200. Assuming you have a good sized target board, place your aming point at the bottom edge of the board and increase your sight setting 2 or 3 minutes from your 200 zero and fire 3 shots. Increase again a like amount and fire 3 shots. Continue until you run out of target board. If your groups wander in deflection, your rear sight is still not plumb. If it leans counter to the balistic drift of the bullet, it is well. If it does not, you know how to fix it or adapt to it and live with it. Adapting to it may not be such a difficult thing if you are shooting targets as you will have known sight settings for each target at each shooting range which you frequent. Where the bullets go is not as important as that they all go the same place; you can turn the elevation and deflection knobs and make the group go where you want it. Yours made a nice group in the same place.
