Open sights setting for RWS48

Hi,
Looking for suggestions on setting up my open sights for RWS 48. The gun always shot too left since opening the box. See the open sight setting that eventually got it on 2” spinner at 25 yards. I scoped it for next 3 years and worked great until last year I thought of making things interesting and accurate using peep sights(on scope rails). Now with peep sight all the way to right the gun still hits 2” left of the spinner. This is after tilting the front sight left (not noticeable in pic).
The shooting challenge is indeed interesting as intended with hold over. But would be great if there be a way to align front or rear peep to center the bore?

Believe you can drift or move front sight to move poi, would check mine but got rid of open sights a long time ago.

That far off target I suspect your barrel got bent somehow. Begin with a straight edge alongside the barrel. My 48 shoots like my TX 200 - no droop, no shooting to the side. My 48 is great scoped or with open sights.
