Would love to see the 1920 BSA Light shot in comparison. You have move shooting skills than I.

Keep in mind this was shot off a rest...with an low-ish powered, 8-pound rifle...having a Rekord trigger...and modern "circle in circle" match sights spaced 3 feet apart...! And let's just say my other groups of the day, ah, bore little resemblance to this one. It would be big fun to do this with the BSA though! (And as luck would have it, my bud Lance picked up a nearly identical 1920 or '21-vintage No. 1 Standard in Hickory - we will have a shoot-off at our next gathering. Which, alas - between the holidays and the weather - may not be for a while.)
Did Lance’s Standard have a peep sight?
