    Civilian AR-15 target sights have an aperture between 1 and 1.15 mm (0.039 and 0.045 in). The aperture on AR-15 military sights have a day aperture of approximately 1.78 mm (0.070 in), and the M16A2 also a night setting with a larger 5.08 mm (0.200 in), and as such the military sight is not strictly a diopter sight in either setting.

    A typical 4.5 mm (.177 in) 10 m air rifle match pellet. For the 10-meter air rifle and air pistol disciplines, match-grade diabolo pellets are used.

Match pellets are offered ...
