XS sight system
Has anyone ever used one of their sight systems on a winchester m70? i see the offer a low weaver back up aperture sight offering up to 6" elevation at 100 yards. wondering if this would work with either and NECG or Rechnagel front sight and they didn't know either.

I have one as a ghost ring back up on my 7x57. I had to mount it reversed so the bolt would operate but it still works and does not inhibit loading or ejection.

I have used it for range comps out to 200 yards without problem.

I may use it for wild boar (hogs) in the Far North of Qld later this year where the action can be fast and close.

Edit: As soon as Photobucket re-opens I'll post a pick.
