K31 - Double sight in?

[Shrinkmd]

I was thinking about putting a Mojo sight onto a K31 to shoot it better, as well as sight in with different loads. I was looking at the clamp on mounts as well. Is it possible to put a Mojo sight and a St. Marie clamp on scope on a K31?

It seems like you'd have the best of both worlds, a scope and good iron sights together. And if you could/did, would it make sense to sight in both at 100 yds, or maybe iron at 100 and scope at 200 or 300?

Is it possible to put a Mojo sight and a St. Marie clamp on scope on a K31?

Yes. You can use the St. Marie clamp on scope mount with the original sights for a backup. The scope mount also won't intefere with changing the iron sights for aftermarket Mojo sights.

As an aside, I configured my scope mount slightly canted so that I roll the rifle to an angle putting the scope directly over the bore instead of offset. To use the iron sights, I simply roll the rifle to the right a bit, which also pulls my cheek off the raised leather cheekpad I added. It works quite well.

I sight all my 30 caliber rifles in at 200 yards to get the most out of the ballistics (+/- 3" or so). GP11 has ballistics similar to .308 BTW. I sight the irons and scopes in at the same range to keep things simple and avoid confusion.
