Gun Tests November 2010 has done a 4 page review of a Sabatti 450/400 NE and scored it an A-.

Better front and rear sights would have made it an A. They didn't like the recoil pad, as all owners have agreed, but were impressed with the wood, metal, design, ejectors, finish, etc.

One thing I did to improve my rear sight was to fill the vertical groove with gold leaf and it must have helped because my groups shrank considerably. So far I am extremely pleased with my 450NE and only time will tell as to their durability and reliability afield as both clients and professionals use them. jorge

Well done jorge. I have done on other big bore rifles and noticed my Sabatti also needs this. And yes, I believe it will improve the sight picture which should in turn improve the impact area. I used luminous firearm paint applied with a tooth-pick.

Since I sold him the 450/400 ammo, do I get any credit? Smiler
