24 inch barrel, shoots low and left. Best way to fix the sights?

It does have the rear sight that is adjustable for elevation but I am using it with the blade folded down. I know that I can raise the rear sight. I may even just put shims under it with the blade folded down to zero it at 50 yds. My main concern is the lack of windage adjustment.Does your musketoon have an adjustable rear sight as shown in the following link?

Also, at what range distance or distances are you shooting?. This is important because less than 100 yards you probably won't put the sight ladder up, but at 100 yards or more you will be.

Have a skilled gunsmith install a dovetail front sight in whatever configuration you want , S&S firearms sells period looking dovetail front sights.....drift it to hit dead on, problem solved. Should be an easy job for any Smith worth their salt.

60 grains! You running out of powder brother?Brit, I didn't notice any difference in windage from 40-60 grains fffg. I did notice a change in elevation, like a handgun, the heavier charge hit lower, slower loads hit higher. I suspect more time in the barrel, just as in handguns.
