Lower front sight on BRNO 602 carbine

[geologist]

I chopped the barrel on my BRNO 602 .375 H&H rifle from 25" to 20". The original front sight was re-installed but was now too high due to the barrel contour.

I purchased a #7 0.223" high CZ bead sight as a replacement.

I tried it out at the range yesterday with Federal 270 gr Powershoks. I had the rifle on a front rest only, I shouldered the stock without a rear bag. The target was set at 100 yards, I used the factory express sights and held dead centre. I used the set trigger for each shot.

I think the new front bead is a keeper!

Great shooting with irons

I just bought a 602 in 375 off a buddy and I think I might get the barrel bobbed a bit as well.


Did you buy the new sight in Canada?

Post some pics of the 602 after you chop it down. We love short rifles on CGN!

Thanks davey. Shooting that rifle off the bench is not a lot of fun!
