I found a copy of "Soldier's Handbook Of The Rifle and Score Book for Special Course C Arranged For THE UNITED STATES RIFLE MODEL OF 1917". It was edited by the Army War College in 1917 and printed in 1918. It is a How-To book for the 1917, operation, shooting positions and course of fire . Also has the scoring sheets in it for recording your scores.

Anything in there about "windage" adjustments?

Anything in there about "windage" adjustments?

A couple of tables and two pages of info.
