All, I just picked up a Remington 416 Safari Grade. The previous owner has mounted a Redfield 4-12 scope (don't understand why) and removed the factory front and rear sights. Since he has passed away his family has no idea where they might be. I can find replacement sights but have no clue as to the front sight height. Would anyone here know? I plan to call the Custom Shop Monday and ask them directly. | ||

.385 inch? When I was a kid. I had the stick. I had the rock. And I had the mud puddle. I am as adept with them today, as I was back then. Lets see today's kids say that about their IPods, IPads and XBoxes in 45 years! Rod Henrickson | |||

Simple; you buy your rear, and front ramp. After you get them installed and measure them from center of bore line, then you will know which front sight to get. Math. | |||

If you're going to spend money on sights, you might as well dig through NECG and Recknagels catalogues and find something a little bit more sporting, civilized and socially acceptable than the standard Remington sights. (I love acting all Britishy) I think the rear hole spacing is .562 and the front is .605. I would double check that. I've been wrong a lot lately. When I was a kid. I had the stick. I had the rock. And I had the mud puddle. I am as adept with them today, as I was back then. Lets see today's kids say that about their IPods, IPads and XBoxes in 45 years! Rod Henrickson | |||

Thank you both for the direction. I'm going to stick with the factory sights as I'm not sure this rifle will stay with me long. john | |||
