Description
The .375 H&H is a standout among model 70s, bearing several features which are unique to the chambering. These included a 25″ barrel with a distinctive contour, and a dual-folding leaf rear sight.
This is a Lyman 6W, which came on the .375 H&H until 1956. This sight was used with a dovetailed base on rifles with the 25″ C1 (medium-heavy) contour barrels. It was also available without a base, for the very small number of .375 H&H rifles produced with the 24″ standard 1 contour barrel. The hole spacing is 1.25″.
These original pre-64 sights are exceedingly scarce and nearly impossible for us to keep in stock. As an alternative to the original, we also offer a post-64 .375 H&H sight. It is a genuine Winchester part and has the same hole-spacing as the pre-64 sights. The only functional difference is the post-64 folding leafs are slightly taller, which can be adjusted for with a taller front sight.
