FWIW...

I took my Lee Enfield No. 4 out to Whittington with the closest thing I could cobble up for Mk VII ammo as that is what the sights are (supposed to be) calibrated for. My plan was to see how well the ladder markings coincided with actual yardage. I neglected to consider elevation in my cogitations. I naturally started at the 1100 setting figuring we'd be close. Nada. Moved up because I ALWAYS move in the wrong direction first to get that out of the way. Nada. Finally moved to the 1000 setting and started to see dust being kicked up. On that day, with that load, the 900 setting allowed me to strike the buffler. Total for the day: 3 for 10. I was pleased overall.
