No doubt, you need adjustable sights of some type, whether open, red dot or scope..

I also agree with the lighter load advice. Sometimes too many pellets out of a tight choke cancause the pellets to get in each others way. I know my gun shoots radically differently with 2 3/4 pheasant loads than it does with 3" 1 7/8 loads. ascope of some kind will solve all your problems.

You might also try raising the comb on your stock to change your sight plane. I know Cabelas or Bass Pro sell these things that are basically a foam wedge you slip under a neoprene sleeve that fits over the stock. My Benelli SBE was shooting low and it comes with different shims that raises or lowers the stock. I changed shims and it took care of my problem. Something you might try to see if this it the route you want to go is to put some foam sponges on top of the butt stock and wrap it with a ace bandage and see if that helps.

I've done that, it does help. But the scope is easier. (except when it's raining)

Yeah, I ended up going with a red dot after I finally found somebody who would drill and tap a Benelli.
