inches high at 50 yards which is the distance for our event. The rear
sight is down all the way. The gun must be totally stock for the most
part - no scopes or replacement sights are allowed which sevely limits
the options.
One thing I was thinking about was cutting the notch in the rear sight
a little deeper. Any ideas on that or anything else?

The iron sights on this rifle are set for 300 yards. When I was researching mine I found that little tidbit somewhere in my research. If I can again find the article I will link it here but it will not be until the weekend that I will have time to look. Anything less than 300 yards will be high.
