I'd get a nice set of peep sights for it. Iether the williams or XS systems ghost ring. The XS is one of the most accuratre ghost rings due to its flat top front post. Its a lot more precise than a bead front.

If it were me I would leave it with open sights or install a peep. Then I would use this as an excuse to go buy that bolt action rifle and scope! By the way, you should really give the Savage a look. Bought a model 16 in 270 wsm last year andI'm really impressed with it.

I would leave it as a open sight as well. I have 4 lever actions guns and 3 of them are scoped. I mainly have mine scoped because we hunt hogs at night and with a good scope I can see things I can't see with open sights. Though during the day I perfer the open sights.

Butch,
I got a Savage 110 in .270 this year and love it...even took up reloading for it. I got it at Wally world as a package with a Simmons 3x9x40 scope for $350. The scope is ok for now, but I plan to replace it before next season. I love the Savage accu-trigger, if you pick one up make sure it has that...I think older inventory may not have it.
