I had my spare upper rebarreled (Compass Lake and Krieger service rifle) and finally got to the range today. Shooting 2.5 minutes to the right. Which way do I turn set screws under sight to get closer to mechanical zero? Thanks in advance. Please reply via PM or email (hounddog3198@gmail.com)

Why didn't Compass Lake have it adjusted for windage before they shipped it too you............? You need to change your windage setting on the rear sight............ not the front sight height.

OP:
You re correct. Set the rear sight to mech zero and adjust the front........... (loosen the side you are shooting on)

Instructions are here:

Da Gimp:
The service rifles get set up slightly different, then a regular.
