I know how it is, I use Cabela's gift cards too.
I'm trying to figure out what you need to do.
A new higher rear sight could be the way to go, to say the least.
Or else your front sight may become too small if it needs to be filed down too much to get it sighted in.
My gut feeling is that a higher rear sight should be somewhat more comfortable for providing better eye alignment when the rifle is shouldered and held to aim.
And the original sight[s] can always can always be put back on if you end up selling the gun down the road.
