    Red dot question

    I put a red dot on a mini 14 scout rail. The problem is sighting it in it will not adjust far enough down it high impact at full adjustment Now if I lower the red dot itself will that move the point of impact the correct way or make the problem worse? Do I need to raise it?

    Got some trigger time today with my Tac-ops infidel. For those of you who missed it the Test target Mike shot was .015 center to center at 100 yards. I shot a .020 group with this rifle myself. This was with Federal gold medal match. I also tried some black hills match. While it did well again...
