That worked out alright...
I toyed with the notion of putting different sights on this old Ruger .22 auto. But I always attempt to file and/or drift whatever is on the gun. Since this one was shooting high, I mounted a pair of reinforced Dremel cutting wheels on a mandrel, which worked out to be almost exactly the width of the sight notch. I deepened it, filed the rear sight down and pecked away until the POI was good. The last nine rounds of the day got sent away from 50 yards... it ain't the most accurate Ruger .22 I've owned but I deem it 'minute of coyote' and will pack it while out on the tractor.
