Sounds like you had a wonderful time!
I did much the same a few times when I lived in the GVA, many years ago. Not possble now, I suppose.
Left-and-right on your rear sight is adjusted with the little wormwheel behind the lower aperture. You only need tools if it has been stuck or rusted into place; rest of the time it is thumbnail-adjustable.
FIELD stripping the Ross was limited to removal of the bolt and scooping out the mud with your fingers and a stick. There actually were special sticks for this purpose (cost 5 cents ech) bt the Gummint refused to spend the money. Only Armourers were allowed to strip down the bolts, for very good reason.
You can head up to the Sticky at the top of this page and download your very own .pdf copy of the 1913 MANUAL for your rifle. It really makes things much easier.
Most important: welcome to the Wonderful World of Ross Rifles!
Hope this helps.
