armenjs - no issues with shooting low. I am about an 1 1/2 high at 50 yards so expect to be at, or near, the same at 100. I have the micrometer sight and its lowest setting is 200 yards.

I'll have to check what number is on my front sight later, it's still dark here, and will post later what number it is.

It does sound to me like your front blade is too tall. If you didn't mind messing with it, and losing its originality (not a problem if you are going to replace it) then begin filing it down in small increments. The shorter the sight the higher the rifle should shoot. And it won't take a lot - I used to do this with pistols that shot too low and had fixed sights.

Hope it helps -

Be well
Steve
