MK3 shooting high

[Stewienb]

My no1 mk3 shoots 6 inches high at 100yds and i have the rear sight all the way back. Ive heard there are different heights of front sight blades that would hlep me with this problem. Has anyone came across this? Not sure what number the front blade is that is on it now, i will have to look.
Nothing wrong with the barrel, riflings are like new and it groups toonie size at 100yds, if you can hold it steady enough.
Any input to correct this condition would be greatly appreiciated.

If you over tighten the inner band screw the Enfield will shoot high.
(you only tighten this screw until spring compression is felt)

If the fore stock is not a tight fit in the rear draws area the Enfield will shoot high.

The Enfield is designed and set up to shoot three inches high at 100 yards

Download the PAM (mini-manual) below, bigedp51 is Ed Horton and I donated this manual and many others to Badgers website.
