Need help with Rice 50 C weight

[hortonstn]

If you have a Rice 50 cal C weight please measure your ft and rear sight height for me
I'm getting tired of making sights I don't know why I'm having such a hard time
Thanks

Makeum tall and cuttum down usually works.
Charge will alter sight  heights.

Best,
Richard.

Make them the same height above the centre of the bore to start.
The front sight might need a minor amount of filing to get it on.
Depends much on what range you want it sighted for.
Level will likely be close to dead on at 25 and maybe 1/2" high at50.
My .50 is a Rice Gun-maker's barrel. C-weight is a heavier one.
Taylor's .50 Rice on his Voluptuous Virginia is a C weight, I think.
Much also depends on how you see sights.  It Taylor's rifle is zeroed at 50yards for him
it will shoot 2" low for me.

Rice makes a lot of different barrel profiles that have a "C weight" in .50 caliber. You need to more specific as to the barrel profile.
The Virginia profile is the same for all the available calibers. It makes for a heavy .50 caliber rifle.
