I have a new (SxS) double rifle, that is poorly regulated. I am going to scope it to try to improve it's regulation. What would be the best way to sight it in? Try to balance both barrels or just one?

This is why a double is so expensive. Keep in mind, that the scope setting will change as distance does, because the axis of the scope is different from the bore.
Some of the Baikals have adjustment for the barrels. Yours doesn't, apparently. How much are the barrels dis-regulated?

The rifle is a Sabbati 500 Nitro Express. It is regulated for Hornady ammo at 50 meters. The test target shows 2 shots 1 1/2 inch low and 2 inches left of the aiming point. Regulation was done at the factory with a laser, no shots fired. I thought a scope would be the easiest way to correct point of impact.
