POA/POI change w/ new rear sight

I've got a 92G that I put a Wilson Trigger bar in and did a trigger job on - I'm a big fan of the gun, more than the Glocks I've had, and I think easier to tinker than the CZ's I love.

The one thing I dislike about the gun is I have to cover the point of impact with the front sight dot. I prefer having the point of impact being right at the top of the front sight post, a very minor 6 oclock hold. Every other pistol I've had uses this sight picture, and it's the one I use on my rifles too.

It has the front sight that is milled in to the slide, so I need to replace the rear with a taller one to get it to my preferred sight picture. I do not want adjustable sights.

What are people's recommendations for a new rear sight height based off personal experience?

Ammo is 125grain cast lead, minor loads, occasional 115-124 grain factory ammo.

(from Beretta Forum)

Standard slide 92/96
The Standard Height rear sight is .267" high.

Novak .278" high will raise POI Approx. 1.5" @ 25 yards
Novak .290" high will raise POI Approx. 3.2" @ 25 yards
Novak .305" high will raise POI Approx. 5.3" @ 25 yards

Brigadier Slide 92/96 (including Elites)
The Standard Height rear sight is .290" high.

Novak .278" high will lower POI Approx. 1.6" @ 25 yards
Novak .290" high should not change POI (use this sight if you don't need a POI Change)
Novak .305" high will raise POI Approx. 2.1" @ 25 yards
Novak .320' high will raise POI Approx 4.2" @ 25 yards

The Novak .270 is where it is at...

But...

Wilson also makes a .270, .280, .290, etc...

There is a bit of variation, so use the Dawson Sight Height Calc and figure out what you need: https://dawsonprecision.com/sight-calculator/

Question: If I want an all black .270 Novak, is using a Sharpie to take out the dots my only option? Thanks!
