I've got a 24-3 (6" .44 special) that I can seem to get "sighted in". It came stock with a ramp sight that I replaced with a patridge. It shot "high" with the stock sight and continues to do so with the patridge.
The rear sight is dialed down all the way and the front is .243 inches--the largest they make. (When I replaced it I assumed this would solve the problem).
It shoots at the top of the paper if you line up the bullseye at 6 o'clock. I was told by the Brownell's people that I'd either have to get a custom patridge sight made (taller) or shoot lighter bullets with a light load. I'm shooting 200 gr Rainiers now. All the printing is 4-5" too high depending on the load.
Seems strange that you have to work around this problem by loading light bullets with a light load. This doesn't allow you a lot of latitude. I've not run up against a sight that couldn't be adjusted with any of my guns.
Anybody got any ideas?
