And the windage adjuster works fine. But how about the elevation? Clockwise for up or down? Gun is currently apart waiting for an aftermarket piston, so I can't check for myself.

Can you adjust it enough to see if it is getting taller or shorter?

C. Sight Adjustment

• Elevation - turning the elevation screw clockwise will move the sight (and point of impact) down. Turning the elevation adjustment screw counter-clockwise will move the sight (and point of impact) up.

Thanks, Larry. I didn't really want to crank on the screws just yet. Waiting for my piston/valve to come back from Airgun Smith so I can put the gun back together.

Good list, Carl. I have adopted the FORS method to remember sight adjustments.

Forward = Opposite
Rear = Same

Larry, I'm adding your FORS acronym to my sight adjustment text file.

Thanks for sharing that one.
