Astrometrical properties of the Hubble Space Telescope Guide Star Catalogue (GSC) were recently investigated by the same authors through its comparison with the PPM catalogue. In this paper, a new systematic plate-based magnitude dependent error produced by telescope optics and by the incompleteness of plate reduction model has been found after applying a simplified block adjustment procedure. New subroutine for correction of all systematic errors is developed and GSC can be used now as a dense reference catalogue on about 0.4″ accuracy level.
