Al,If it were my gun I would raise the comb of the stock before I thought about doing anything to the barrels.

Has the barrel been cut? Something drastic must have happened for a SBT to shoot as low as you describe.

Did you shoot it at paper? take a rest shot at a paper target at about 30 yds and see where it prints that will tell all and like dave said :the comb is the place to start/ scott

Try this. It's a lot cheaper than having something done to your barrel. I'll bet someone cut the comb down.

Ed, I can't thank you enough for that link. I've been looking for years for a high quality leather comb elevating pad for years. I think I'll order two.
