It has a Marbles tang sight installed,that when fully locked out has a slight forward lean. I'm new to this type of sight and rifle ( all my others are scoped bolt actions). Is that normal? Thanks for all your help.

Probably 1-3 degrees isn't going to make much difference though. If God wanted you to walk and carry things on your back, He would not have invented stirrups and pack saddles
