I didn't watch the video, but just remember the rear sight needs to go the direction you want the bullet to go.

If you are hitting low, then the bullet needs to go up so the rear sight needs to move up. If you are hitting to the left, then the rear sight needs to move to the right.

The Brownell company has a sight correction calculator which is interesting to play with:
