My snub shooting has improved to the point that I'm getting better groups with this (Taurus 85 DAO, 2" barrel, .38 special) than with my Browning Hi-Power. The problem is now that my groups have tightened up, I'm noticing they're centered quite a bit off of the bullseye.
At 7 yards, I'm getting a tight 1 inch group exactly 2 inches low of the bullseye. I thought that since I was using Speer Gold Dot 135 grain +P, the fixed sights might be regulated for the 158 grain loads, so I tried some of those (was in the process of switching carry loads to 158 grain Rem LHP anyway) and got exactly the same results.
How can I fix this, or is there anything I can do short of sanding a tiny bit off the top of the front sight, then shooting another group (10 shots at 15 or 20 yards, probably), repeat til it's on target? Is there some special way to do it?
