I have a 375 H&H that Echols completed for me over 8 years ago that has very similar sights, particularly the standing skeletonized rear blade on a pedestal base, only the sights on my rifle were made by EAW.

In terms of quality construction, efficiency, and functional utility, I don't see how this design can be improved upon in any meaningful way. The simple, non-folding, rugged rear sight is FAST to acquire and doesn't obscure the target, and it's high enough to work perfectly with a high, straight-combed stock that's designed primarily for scope use, and it works perfectly well with detachable scope bases.

Fundamentally, it makes many of the older open sights rather obsolete.

If I were to build another serious-use hunting rifle that was to feature a scope in detachable rings, this open-sight system would remain my first choice.
