General Advice on the use of W A LTHE R Small-Bore Rifles:

1. SightsBefore commencing to shoot, ensurethat the screws holding the front andrear sight are tightened up.

- The prism diopter is adjustable for50, 100, and 150 m. Setting the rearsight for these distances is effectedby means of the elevation screw.The scale markings must in eachinstance coincide with the Zero mark(see arrow).Windage correction: - If shots groupto right, turn knob = R to the left(anti-clockwise); if shots go to theleft, turn knob = L clockwise (asshown by arrows on knob).

Elevation correction: - If shots golow, turn knob = Tto the left; if shotsgroup high, turn knob = H to theright.3 clicks result in an alteration of themean centre of the group by onering on the target.
