i built a traditions hawken a few years ago and finally killed deer with it this year. the plastic sights are an abombination
anyone recomend a replacement set that arent fiber optic? i like remington 700 sights for some reason my old eyes focus them.

Exactly what I did.
I took a set of Remington 700 sights and put them on my T/C Greyhawk.
The Greyhawks sights sucked and I’m way more accurate with the new sights.
Can’t remember but I think I had to drill and tap only one hole iirc.

A nice peep, like the Lyman 57SML?

Yes, the Lyman 57SML
