    50 feet, if you were referring to my target.

    I picked up a mostly SA Garand at the CMP this past fall. At the range, I dialed the rear sight up 9 clicks, and checked the POI by starting at 50 yards off of a bench with sandbags. I shot a single chambered round then a full 8-round clip at 50 yards (next pic). These I put all into the black of an 8 inch circle. Finally, I shot two full clips at 100 yards. For my old eyes through open sights, I was satisfied.

    Thanks EMC45, and yes, I also picked up a can of Greek M2 ball. They would only sell me one en bloc as they didn't have a large supply, but I too love the CMP.
