Yes. After another disappointing attempt at the range on Thursday, Mrs. Fan and I drove to Casper to see a reputable gun expert. He said my front sight was too short. I ordered a taller one. Should be here soon.
I'll continue to update. Sure appreciate all the help here!!

It is always good to hear of a good gunsmith. I am in Casper a couple of times a year, and a fellow never knows when a good gunsmith will be needed. If you are comfortable passing it along, please share his name. Thanks.

Anyway, here's the link - http://www.rocky-mountain-sports.com/ - Turns out that they have stores in other cities too.

If you are shooting off a rest under the barrel; it will put upward pressure on the barrel causing it to shoot high. Try moving the rest close to the reciever. If it still shoots high like that make sure the fore arm is tight. If that will not work; it's your sights.
