Winchester m70 safari replacement sights?

[Voodooracer]

Hi everyone, I have a question regarding possible sight replacements/upgrades for the current production Winchester m70 safari express rifles. I have an m70 in 416 rem mag and I love the rifle dearly, it is very accurate and wears a scope 95% of the time but i was curious if there were any iron sight upgrades that you guys would recommend or use, either front, rear or both. I appreciate the input!

Thanks,
Voodoo

I'm partial to their See Thru Sights have them on 3 large bore mod 70 Safari's

Thanks, I like the look of that a lot. What front sight do you use in conjunction with that rear sight?

Williams has a large selection

What about getting a quarter rib fitted? Are they custom made, or does NECG or Rechnagel make them?

Used their Universal Screw-On Ramp as there is a lot of vertical adjustment in the blade and it was easy to put on. Plus a full assortment of beads.

I put a Skinner Winchester M70 peep sight on my 375 H&H.....I love it!

BenKK I've been seriously considering having a quarter rib put on, I think that may be the route I go. The other options are good and would do just fine I'm sure, I tend to do better with the express style sights. Just a personal preference.
