Is it possible that you are cross eye dominant? If you are shooting right handed but are left eye dominant your groups will be off relative to sight alignment. The way to test this is simple. Hold both hands at arms length making a circle with your fingers and thumbs. With both eyes open hold the opening and look through it at a distant target -- a lamp, a clock, a light switch..etc. First close your left eye. Does the item you targeted stay in the hole between your hands? Try the same thing while closing your right eye. Whichever eye works without the target going out of view is your dominant eye.

If you are cross eye dominant you have several choices. (1) make the rear sight adjustment as necessary. (2) learn to shoot with the other hand (3) train the other eye to be dominant. Of the three the first is easiest.
