Anyone have experience with red dot sights for pistols?

I just purchased an NCSTAR compact tactical red dot sight for my Ruger Mark III Target pistol, attached it and took it to the range. :banghead: The dang thing has my pistol shooting almost 2 feet below target even though I've adjusted the sight upwards to its highest point.

What am I doing wrong? Are my physics incorrect and these sorts of sights are actually like the front sight: in order to shoot higher the sight has to be lowered (in other words they act the opposite of rear sights)?

Or perhaps the better question would be...should I take the dang thing back to the dealer and ask for my money back because none of these red dots are going to work unless I'm willing to pay as much as I did for my stainless steel Mark III?

Please clarify. How did you adjust the sight upwards?
