Seamus McGillicuddy Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 I know the basics of adjusting iron sights but my questions is this, is it generally better to adjust the front or rear sight or does it not matter? In this case I have a Winchester Model 62A .22 that hits right of the bull. Both front and rear sights are in dovetails. Is there any rule of thumb regarding which which one is better or easier to adjust to get the desired result? Thanks for any responses.

Perro Del Diablo Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 Generally I try adjust rear only unless other reasons make me change the front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Riot Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 Unless the front sight is off center I would adjust the rear first. Here is some handy info for iron sights. https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/How_to_adjust_an_iron_sight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seamus McGillicuddy Posted May 2, 2019 Author Share Posted May 2, 2019 Thanks for the input. In the past I’ve only adjusted the rear except for a rifle that only allowed drift on the front. Seamus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
