Thanks for the info. So the sight would have been something like this?
Thank you to all who commented. This is my first LE, still trying to work out these darned charger clips (top round keeps rimming-over!). I'd love a Lithgowas I'm not far from there, but haven't seen any in shops lately that would make good shooters.
I watched Riflechair's sighting in video the other day, and am looking forward to making some time to scientifically sight the rifle in.
