Model 70 front sight ramps

[curtism1234]

So in a moment of sheer brilliance, I removed the front sight hood off my 375 Super Express without paying attention to if I needed to drive it up or down in the slot. I choose wrong and scratched the ramp all to hell. Being a perfectionist, I now have to replace it bc the touch up pen isn't great.

Does anyone know - over the years, did winchester only make 1 ramp for the 375 rifles? I see standard size, 375, and 458. Not really a mention of barrel contour or screw spacing.

Thanks

Have you called Winchester?

Talk with a tech, let them know what you did, give the tech your rifle info, and order a new/replacement front sight.

Just an idea.

I will be having NECG sights installed on my classic SM next year. If you don’t find it by then, or don’t mind the wait, you can have it free.
