I'm pretty sure they are identical to the No1 Mk3 sights (blades) so the biggest is +0.03

another formula that has helped me zero a rifle with iron sights is:

     amount of error x sight radius/ distance to the target (measurements in inches, results in thousands of an inch)

this has helped me purchase or alter front sight height to help make POA and POI intersect.
best regards, john

your very welcome, frameman1. the formula can help find a close enough front sight to get you on target without using up alot of ammo first. also useful for making windage adjustments. best john

I use that equation too. It works very well on all firearms. Just remember to have all the figures in the same format. 

It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice!
