Speedbead question

Bought a couple of speedbeads one for turkey and one for waterfowl. I was sighting in my turkey gun today I had to adjust the dot up and the up screw is now maxed out, its sighted in but if I needed to adjust the dot up I wouldn't be able to, so did I mount it wrong some how? When I installed it I put the thicker of the two risers under it.
I have not shot my other SBEII yet to see how that one sights in.

- Scroll down a tad and click on Benelli Installation guide in yellow box on the right side of the screen

- Check out step 6 where it talks about the "Wedge" screw. Tightening it should bring your dot down. I just snugged mine according to the directions and it worked out just fine (mine is on an 870 without either shim). Just remember you have to take the FF and shim off the base to get to the "Wedge" screw. If it's tightened snug then I'm not sure what the problem could be.
