I had my xd40 diamond coated and had meprolight night sights installed. I ordered them from xd-hs2000.com. The front sight as a 8 on it. The gun seems to be shooting high.Straight but high. I am comparing this to shooting my usp compact which I shoot dead on. I only shot the xd at some spinning targets before refinishing. Any ideas guys?

Use a 6 o clock site picture.
This will make the gun shoot dead on.
The instructions that came with my XD SC 9mm said to use the 6 o clock site picture.

Point of Impact
Shooters may use a “point of aim” sight picture at
25 yards. This means that, at 25 yards the bullet should
impact the target at the point visible at the top of the
front sight. Shooters may also use a “6 o’clock” sight
picture to strike the center of the target. Springfield
Armory pistols are designed to use the “6 o’clock” sight
picture at 25 yards. However, some pistols may shoot
“point of aim” at 25 yards depending on shooter and
ammunition.
From the XD manual
