After observing that I was having a difficult time centering my shots at fifty yards, I am interested in replacing the rear LPA SPR sight with something better. I could get my groups a little to the left of the target center or twice that distance to the right, but never centered. I had hoped I could figure out what a click equaled, divide it by 3 and move the sight base, but a fellow competitor placed the slide in a vice with a dial indicator on the blade and found that the windage adjustments were not linear or consistent, with some clicks making no movement and even some clicks moving the sight in the wrong direction. The sight blade is spring loaded instead of riding along a screw like a Bo-Mar or Kensight. The best I can hope for with this sight is to either load the left side of the blade with my finger while adjusting right or moving, say five clicks right then back four clicks left to try to get a good right click.
Any suggestions for a replacement sight?
