    Regardless, if you know the amount of error its easy to calculate the amount of sight height change required, depending on the sight setting used. Test at 100 w/ the leaf up and set on "2" and then measure the distance from the point of aim to the center of the group, no matter its size, and get back to us. Also get a cheap set of calipers to measure sight heights if you can. The blades are SUPPOSED to be of uniform height, its the base tops that vary. Doesn't work out that way all the time after many years being out of the armory system, so...
    my group at 100 yards set at 200 is 3-4" high
    my front sight is
    .102" thick at the base top
    .143.5" (blade only)
    .350" wide (base)(side to side)
    .322.5" tall (entire sight)
    .404" (base) (front to back"
