All shot with the No4 Mk2 with the Leatherwood ARTII 600, load & other details on the targets.
Not too shabby for old eyes.
I actually shot these for an informal match on another forum.

Sorry about the big image I'm still getting used to the forum

Yay! my (correct) "Omark" marked Leverlock screw arrived! for the Central on the Lithy SMLE.
Its so simple its briliant!
A one winged nut spring loaded by a coil spring, to engage a hex bolt head with a circular "groove machined into it! To tighten/loosen you turn the lever which turns the bolt, clamping the sight! To reposition, you don't want it in your eye, just slip against the spring rotate in a circular section in the hex head, & let drop back to re engage in a different position!

Sorry, these are HUGE & I'm resizing them too!

Sorry 'bout that these are the same resized down images I use everywhere, I have no idea why they dont work normally here?
Off to the test section to see what works.
Some size normally then I get the IMax version of others!
