The rifle does not have a peep sight and I'd rather not make any changes to it. Rustam

If you look at a bolt mounted aperture sight all you need is a replacement cocking piece to have the dovetail cut in and you can have your rifle origional simply by changing the cocking piece. advantages are balance is unchanged and neither is the weight. There are no driling of mounting holes for scope bases. This used to be quite common where an aperture was set up in tandem with the leaf sight.

This is on my 7x57 and I find it very accurate and think of it as at least a 200 yd accurate hunting sight.

This chap makes them as demand dictates and they are very well priced and beautifully made.
