I have a AR-15 with quad rail setup, 14.5" barrel and a 2" brake. I have Magpul BUIS on the top rail (front and rear sight). When shooting an initial 5 round set today (first time shooting this gun) every round was approximately 3' - 4' high. I adjusted them down as far as they would go but the result is still off paper. I switched over to a cheap Barska 3x9 red dot and the result is worse (4' - 6' high). 40 rounds shot and I only got 12 on paper and this was because I aimed 3' below the target.
This is on a 50 yard plinking range with bench rest.
Question; How the heck do I get this thing to be at least close to zero at 50 yards? Both the scope and the buis have standard picatinny rail screw system and there does not seem to be a wrong way of putting them on. The adjustments seem minor but it seems I need major changes.
I am a pistol guy so my rifle skills are weak (obviously) any suggestions are welcome.
