I couldn't shoot for crap with my SMLE converted to a .22 trainer. The Brits never changed the rear sight, still set for .303. Did a little research, found a solution. Added a Central No. 4 target sight [Had to remove the rear volley sight and the "dog bone']. Accuracy restored! Plus it looks cool and no one at my range has one.

Neat! How does it shoot? Some groups would be interesting to see.

50 yards using Norma Tac-22. Sorry about the picture quality, I had to take the picture through my spotting scope. It's a start, going to dial it in next time. Not expecting match quality out of it, but a big improvement over the tangent sight.
