I copied this from AR as I don't have my sheet.
Put your particular numbers in this formula and you are good to go.
If you are shooting 6 inches high at 50 yards and there is 24inches between your front and rear sight then
6 x 24 = 144 divided by (50x36=1800) =.08 and that is how much you would need to file the rear sight down or get a front sight .08 higher.
You could have coppied the rest of my post with the formula so Casper can work out what the numbers relate to. This was my full post.
The formula for sight height correction is "FORS" front oposite rear same and to get the amount of correction is also simple with the amount of error in inches multiplied by the sight radius in inches divided by the distance to target in inches.
