I thought I might be going down this road too, but I believe I'll have express sights sorted in a few weeks. Nice to know they work so well.

Id recommend the skinner peeps. I used the factory irons on my 458 lott and liked those too, though they werent as precise

Well it's a clear advantage. My sight radius in irons is about 17½" and with the peeps I'd wager you're closer to 24" as I don't know your barrel length. My chief complaint was that my issued irons devoured elevation at 25 yards and were quite a squint to see.

That's great shooting Robby!
 
There’s a gentleman on YouTube who goes by the name 1tufgun. He likes his many big bores and has a Ruger no.1 in 500 nitro that he shoots in a couple of his videos. The recoil is obvious in the vid but he knows how to take it.

His videos were part of my motivation to get this rifle. Standing the recoil isn't bad at all, a big push

Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
To much to political shit, to little Africa :-)
Spending a few years hunting out west then back to Africa!

I doubt you are interested in any trades but I was getting ready to list a Sauer 404 3 barrel set in the 10-12 price range if your interested. It has the 404J, 30-06 and 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Only the 30-06 had been shot and it has 7 rounds through it as I was working on breaking the barrel in. It also has both the synthetic thumbhole stock and somewhere between grade 3-5 non thumbhole stock
