Range report
After having checked the headspace and the bolt not closing on the "NO GO" gauge, I finally had a chance to take the Springfield to the range. I setup my target at 50 yards, and was shooting Greek M2 HXP ammo. I used the rear peep sight set for 100 yards. First shot was off-target by about 7 inches to the left, but elevation was perfect. I adjusted the windage dial a bit (as I did not have the tools to drift the front sight with me), took a second shot. Adjusted the dial a bit more (about 3 click marks) and here are the results:
My buddy Petar took three shots after me on a different target, and he was only a little bit off from the above results.
So, I guess I'm done zeroing it in
I'm looking forward to shooting it at 200 yds next time I have a chance and that range is open.
