I finally got some trigger time with my type I. it'll ring an oxygen tank at 200 yards about 4 out of 5 times but at 100 yards it's hitting about 5 inches to the left. I noticed the front sight is slightly drifted to the right from center(about 1 tenth of an inch). I re-centered the front sight, was this too much of a correction or is that about right? I'm out of 6.5 ammo for now so I'm unable to test this for myself.
