I recently acquired a Winchester Model 70 Classic Stainless in 375 H&H. It is a New Haven model built in 1999. Unfortunately, the fixed sights were taken off of it and they are no were to be found. The previous owner mounted a huge scope that interfered with the rear sight so he took off the rear sight and base along with the front sight ramp and sight. I included a picture below where you can see the hole left empty on top of the barrel and the scope overlapping it.

I have looked online and I can find new front sight ramps and sight parts for a 458 Win Mag, but the 375 H&H sights are not available new. I have heard criticism of the Winchester sights mostly centered around the rear iron sight having a fold down sight blade. Can anyone recommend high quality replacement fixed sights that would fit this rifle using the original mounting? I really like the kind of sights that have a fixed sight blade at 100 meters and a folding blade for different distances beyond that, but a single fixed blade would also be OK.

Originally, the rifle would have had sights like the ones in the pictures below.
