Pittsburghunter - No, I have not filed down the front sights. I took the original sights off altogether and replaced them with plastic crap CVA sights, then moved on and put a set of Lyman Hunter sights on. I don't think it would be a good idea to file down the front sight, might do more harm than good. I will double check at 75 and 100 and see how it is there. If it is still low, I may dig up my original sights and put the front one on and file it down until I can shoot a little higher.
