Most excellent, thanks Gary.

My back sight is comming off for the scout mount on my RH so I put a chainsaw raker file to lower the rear sight.
The sight is soft so the file cuts fast then I used a round chainsaw file to restore the shape of the buckhorn sight.
If wether is better in the morning will run sum test. ( the rear sight is going so what the hell sumthing to tinker with )

I was thinking about doing the same thing then touching it up with some cold bluing. I think I would want to install the front sight first then work the rear until I was on target. The buckhorn is way faster to aquire without shouldering the rifle; ghost ring sights are great when you have the butt seated into your shoulder but for offhand sighting the buckhorns are the answer.
Let us know how you make out.

This thread is huge, I couldn't even find my earlier post about lowering the stock buckhorn... I removed my elevator (and lost it at the range) and was still way high so I cut down the notch with a hacksaw and then dremeled the buckhorn to round it out.
It's on target at 25yards now resting on the barrel with no elevator and the stock front sight. The sight line is very low, just over the top of the receiver where it meets the barrel.
These guns need the highest front sight you can find.....it's easy after that to use the elevator to adjust the rear up and the file it to a chosen load.
I like the buckhorns as well and I find it pretty easy to compensate the elevation for different ranges.

Thanks Can-down.
I looked on Brownells but couldn't find the sights for the 1892 that I'd heard about; I know Steve's has them but I was looking for the best deal and I get a discount through Brownells. I want Steve's video to tune my RH and my Step-daughters, so I'll order two front sets and rework the rears to suit our loads. We're going with a 300 grain Bullet Barn .452'' and a pile of H110. I've got a Ruger RH 4.2'' that's begging for a hot load too.

PM ShellShucker he knows the brownells parts numbers.....

front sight part # is 579-105-331 for the .538" high with 1/16" gold bead.

I'm gonna try the .570 and keep my buckhorn. I totally agree that it is easy to sight in offhand with the buckhorn. The lower notch on the elevator can be ground out so I can keep the elevator there and the sight will rest on the barrel. Hopefully I won't have to play with the rear too much if I use the .570. I just hope it's tight enough. There is still some confusion as to how tight the marbles front will be. It worked well for shell shucker though. I will have to sight it in with a bench cuz there is no way to know you are accurate any other way. No prone or crouch. I like the idea of a small laser on the bottom for 25 yards and zero at 50 yards. Gunblast has a sweet little laser on his KSG video.

I am gonna run some bullet barn 300s through mine too. That'll be one hell of a wallop. The 240 winchesters I am firing have a little kick already. I love these things in 44 mag. Big punch in a small package. Do you fire it without a sling?

[Sam-sung]

I did the same as Can-down, and use 250Gr Hornady XTP's over 6.9gr's of
Unique powder.

I got some 300s from bb as well. Just gotta find some powder. Calgary is all out of H110... Oh well.
