Default M500ES front sight

Update : I put a .160" bladed rear sight on the 500ES & that helped but I still needed a bit more elevation and ended up going with a SDM .250" red fiber optic sight (P250R) on the front. With the rear sight about 2/3 the way up it now hits to POA with 350gr & 400gr bullets loaded to about 85% of max. powder loads at 15yds.
