Hey UMP45, I had the same problem with a Sig 226. Not only was I all over the target but shot VERY low. Called Sig and was told that when using the bar-dot sights the front site dot SHOULD NOT BE IN THE REAR SIGHT NOTCH but should be lined up with the bar in the rear notch. The front dot shold be at the top of the rear notch. In other words shoot out of the notch. I told the Sig person I personaly felt this was crazy. I installed a set of Trijicon nites. End of problem, shoots well.
