Pedersoli SxS 10ga bead

[matttdalton]

I have a Pedersoli SxS 10ga that has a low Point of Impact. Can someone tell me what thread size Pedersoli uses for their beads? I want to experiment with smaller and/or shorter or maybe even no front beads so I can see my target better.

You may find it easier to change your cheek position on the stock to raise your sighting eye to see more of the barrel. Your eye is the rear sight on a shotgun, raise the rear sight and raise the impact of the ball.

That's unusual, Pedersolis come with a fairly high stock. (Although, Navy Arms had quite number that were stocked lower at one point.) Raising the comb with a strap on pad would achieve what you are after.

Or you can put a small wedge under the butt plate to see if it will help. This will either raise or lower the muzzle depending on where you position it - don't make the wedge too large - a small amount will change the impact point greatly. Give it a try.

Thank you for the stock raising suggestions. I have already been using a cheek pad comb raising kit and have used all of the shims it has come with. It’s raised the comb about 1/2” and that’s has brought it up to nearly 50/50 POI pattern. I suppose I could get a second one, add more Velcro and shims to keep going higher.

Everyone is probably correct that it’s easier than replacing the bead because so one seems to know and Pedersoli won’t tell me either.

take the front sight off , tap for US thread and buy all the beads you need.

You didn't tell us that you had raised the comb.

Listen to Cub45 and install a taller bead.

Genius!!! Thanks for the great idea!

Before you go off and drill & tap that rib you better remove the bead and measure those threads first. You also want a LOWER front sight not a TALLER one if your gun is shooting low already :v .
