Even out of a rifle a 44 mag doesn't have the Kupusta for ranges beyond 100 yards. By the time it gets to 100 yards it only has about 900 FPS and that is with Horn Flex loads. There is a reason it hits properly at 25 yards, that is where most are sighted in at. If you want a good all round site set up, go 1.5" high at 25, puts you about 3" high at 50 and back on at 100, from memory. You cannot get a sight arrangement that will make up for the drop much past 100 yards.
If you want to shoot at 100 and beyond get a 444 or 45-70. Fifty yards and under is reasonable for the gun you have. If you can't get the rear sight high enough the next step is to slowly file some height off the front sight. Do this slowly and do lots of testing. Easy to remove, if you go too far you will need a new front sight and have to start over. Best of luck, let us know how you make out.
