The results of that test are absolute bullshyt. They had to be handicapping the bolt rifles with iron sights for the old 71 to compete in accuracy OR speed of accurate fire. Regardless, a Remington 7600 or Browning BAR wearing a scope or red dot sight would have easily whipped them all if accurate repeat fire is the primary goal. There is simply NO WAY iron sights will ever be able to compete with a scope or red dot for sheer speed of aquiring and lining up on a target. .
