I took out the new 556 MPR today to sight in. Sights are Magpul Pro irons. Set up at 25 meters. It took a lot of clicks to raise my POI to match POA, but I found that there was about a 3" difference in elevation shooting from a rest vs shooting from field positions. The photo below shows the results of 3 shots seated and 3 shots from the bench. POA was the center of the red circle for top photo, green circle for bottom photo.
I'm aware of my limitations as a shooter, but I do know how to use iron sights. The variation in elevation was consistent. Seated or prone always produced a shot or a group 3" lower.
Any wisdom for a wannabe rifleman?
