Other thing u can try is using a 6 o'clock hold.

But I doubt that will even bring it down enough.

I've got a Marbles rear barrel sight - would swap it for the tang sight. I'm betting one of the elevator adjustments on the barrel sight would bring your groups right at dead center.

Your front sight needs to be .067" taller to drop the bullet 8" at a 100 yds. (using an estimate of 30" from the rear to front site)
