As you all know, I have just acquired an LP10. I have been trying to adjust the original Iron sights to zero in on both 6yds and 10 metres. I have wound the elevation screw all the way to the stop but when aligning the top of the fore sight with the top edge of the back sight the pellet strike is still far too high at 10 metres.

There is a metal plate which adjusts the depth of the “U” on the rear sight. I have found, by trial and error, that I can position this plate so that aligning the top of the fore sight with the bottom edge of the “U” I can get it to place the zero at 10 metres but surely this cannot be right? Does anyone have any experience of this?
Thanks in advance
Bob
