Lets see, $220 for an after market receiver sight -vs- $???.?? for base, rings and a scope for a bolt action.

Hummmm, yep, sure sounds out of line to me! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

(This response was not intended in a harsh manner, rather just a look at the other side of the coin, OK?)

And have you ever wondered just how many shooters actually use the iron sights that are supplied/provided on some factory rifles given the number of scopes that are mounted. I'd rather have the holes there with filler screws and have to purchase iron sights as an extra cost rather than have to remove them, oh well just my opinion.
