I posted this on another site-- figured someone here might have some ideas as well. I'm thinking of asking Jimmy Flynn at FS.
I've had my 228 for a few months- purchased new. This gun just shoots high. I can shoot all my Sigs and get good groups in the center of a target (combat sighting- dot covers POI). Well this one shoots groups ~2" high at 25 feet! I've tried different ammo from a rest and offhand with very similar results. The only way I can get bullets on target is using a 6:00 hold which sucks! The front sight is #6 and the rear is #8. Any idea of what I should do? The Sig manual say a rear #7 will get me 2 inches lower- but at 25 yards! My range is only 50 feet and I haven't done extensive testing at 50 feet yet. If I do try the #7- how can the armorer center the sight laterally without going to the range? Thanks!
