On my bolt guns, I use a Lyman 48 receiver sight with the screw in aperture removed for close in work, with a gold faced sourdough front sight. On my DR's I use a wide shallow V with a gold faced sourdough front. Both are sighted in to point of impact at 50 yards.

As referred to elsewhere, stock fit is crucial. When you bring the rifle up to your cheek, you should be on target and if neccessary able to hit what you are pointing at without using the sights. The sights should just be there to confirm your aim, if you have time to use them, or, in a less hurried situation, to allow you to pick out a precise point of impact to hit.
