I used the factory sights and my POI would slowly drift horizontally. I finally noticed the front sight was slowly tilting from the pressure of the set screw that holds it. I called Excalibur and was told the dovetail dimension had been changed slightly on the new machined riser. The likely problem was a new riser and an old sight creating a loose fit on the dovetail. They sent me a new sight and the problem was fixed, but I switched to a scope before hunting season, anyway.
Check your front sight and make sure it is not "tilting" when you tighten the set screw. :wink:
THATS IT!!!!!!!! the darn sight is top canted to the left! I have to say that I am rather disapppointed in the quality of the sights. Seems as though they are kind of an after thought.

Wow thanks to all for the help and kind words :D
