I need help with a Webley Revolver.

EDIT: Oops, I posted in the wrong section. Please delete.

I recently got my hands on a Webley revolver and just today managed to take it to the range. At 7 feet it shoots two inches to the left and about 4-5 inches high.

Is there a way to adjust the front sight on a Webley revolver or am I stuck with what I have?

What Calibre? If 38-200, try loading it with 200 grain bullets at about 600 fps. If .455. bullets need to be at least 250 grns at 750 to 800 fps.

Since I got a reply here I will post a link to the other thread.

Just in case the link does not work, here is my reply.


My technique is not the issue here. I am shooting sitting from a rest and am getting a consistent 2 1/2 in group. Unfortunately the group is high and a touch the to the right. I have another old revolver, an Iver Johnson, that groups less then 1 1/2 inches at rest from 7 feet. I hope that reinforces my accuracy claim.

As nobody posted a solution is it fair to assume that the sights can not be adjusted, other than replacing front sight with a taller front blade, or grinding the rear sight?

The ammunition I was using was Winchester brand Super X 38 S&W, 145 Grain Lead-Round Nose. It was the only 38 S&W I could find in the local shops.
