Which they give no guidance on.
One of the simplest tutorials on how to calculate front sight height.

Yup. Seen it before. It's a good one as it accounts for setting up a rear sight on the sloped part of a barrel.
But what I meant is that Ranger Point gives no guidance on which rear sight product(s) might be paired with their front sight.

It's a good one as it accounts for setting up a rear sight on the sloped part of a barrel.
Actually it will work for any barrel and sight combo as it uses the centerline of the bore as the 'constant' and then mathematically factors the rear sight height to correspond with the front sight in relation to the centerline.

I read about so much confusion as to sight height issues I thought it would be a good video to post so maybe some could accomplish this measurement themselves and maybe eliminate some frustration.
