I own a few really nice rifles, like SAKO, and weatherby rifles that did not come equipped with manual rifle sights
has anyone ever retro fitted a good set of peep sights
these rifles are in calibers like 458 win or 378 wby that Id use in dark timber where shots over 100 yards are very rare.
and while I currently use a 2.5 magnification scope with a post & crosshair reticle similar to this

Id like a back-up set of manual sights?
I have been looking for a set of sights that could be installed on the receiver without drilling new holes or making changes that would damage the rifles,
really wish there were easily adjustable rear peep sights, and a front wight that could be retro-fitted similar to what comes on an M14
yeah I know there are commercial receiver sights
like a williams FP98/TK but these are not as well designed or sturdy in my opinion
and front sights

any ideas/suggestions gentlemen??
