I tried it again and with just a bit more force, but not too much - still gently, it went almost a half turn more and lined up perfectly. Adding a little bit more after that didn't move it any further, so I think I got it exactly where it should be.

I appreciate all the help. Since I am still new to this, and since this is the most expensive shotgun I own (even though it is a cheapy by most SXS standards), I just needed a little courage and to know I wasn't going to totally mess something up. You guys have made my day.
