I know both Taj and I prefer the simple, rugged patridge front sight and on his 416 Rigby he set up for use in Zambia he even had a winged rear peep WELDED in place.

If you baby your rifle a bit you can certainly get by with a fine bead . I have one on a few of my nice 30-06 rifles but find that for most uses a relatively heavy post is both easier to see and shoot with

Anyone who claims the 30-06 is not effective has either not used one, or else is unwittingly commenting on their marksmanship.
